Google Unleashes $6.4 Billion Investment in Germany to Fuel Massive AI and Cloud Infrastructure Expansion

Alphabet’s Google is making its largest investment ever in Germany. The company will inject €5.5 billion (about $6.4 billion) into the country. This spending is set to occur by the year 2029. The main goal is to build new infrastructure. This will strengthen Google’s cloud and AI computing power.

Key plans include constructing a new data center in Dietzenbach. Google will also expand its existing facility in nearby Hanau. Additionally, the company is growing its offices in Berlin, Frankfurt, and Munich. This massive project is expected to create or secure about 9,000 jobs each year.

Google emphasized its commitment to sustainability. The company plans to run its German data centers on nearly 85% carbon-free energy by 2026. A new initiative involves capturing and repurposing waste heat from the Dietzenbach center. This heat will supply over 2,000 local households. German officials praised the funding. They called it a key investment for the country’s digital and climate-neutral future.
