Adani Enterprises Ltd, through its joint venture AdaniConneX, has entered into a strategic partnership with Google to develop India’s largest artificial intelligence (AI) data centre campus in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. The landmark collaboration represents a major step in advancing India’s AI and digital infrastructure, with a planned investment of USD 15 billion over the period 2026–2030.
The upcoming Google AI Hub in Visakhapatnam will feature gigawatt-scale data centre capacity, supported by an extensive subsea cable network and renewable energy infrastructure to power advanced AI workloads across the country. Developed in partnership with AdaniConneX and Airtel, the project will significantly boost India’s digital capability while reinforcing the commitment of both companies to sustainability and clean energy growth.
As part of the initiative, the partners will co-invest in green power generation, new transmission networks, and innovative energy storage systems within Andhra Pradesh. This integrated infrastructure will not only support the data centre’s energy requirements but also enhance the reliability and strength of India’s power grid.
Gautam Adani, Chairman, Adani Group, said, “Our partnership with Google represents a defining moment in India’s digital transformation journey. This is far more than an infrastructure project—it’s an investment in the nation’s digital future. Visakhapatnam will soon emerge as a global technology hub, and we are honoured to help shape this transformation.”
Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud, added, “The Google AI Hub will lay the foundation for India’s AI-driven growth. By collaborating with Adani, we will bring advanced computing and data capabilities closer to communities and enterprises, empowering them to innovate, scale, and succeed globally.”The project is expected to create tens of thousands of jobs across technology, construction, and renewable energy sectors, catalysing economic development in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, and beyond.
