Meta의 168MW 인도 베팅, 미국 전력망 병목 우회
Meta가 AI 모델 학습 및 배포를 위해 Gujarat에 168MW 데이터 센터를 구축하고자 Reliance와 제휴했습니다. 이는 기술 대기업들이 전력망이 제약된 시장을 우회해 인도의 급속히 확장되는 인프라로 이동하고 있음을 보여주는 변화입니다.
meta signed its first ai infrastructure agreement in india with reliance industries, leasing capacity for a 168-megawatt data center in jamnagar to support global ai training and deployment. the facility will run on 100% renewable energy and cooled with desalinated seawater, with meta covering all operational energy and water costs. this move deepens the tie-up that began with metas $5.7 billion investment in jio platforms, positioning reliance as a key infrastructure provider for global tech giants. as indias data center capacity is projected to quintuple to 8 gigawatts by 2030, this deal validates the countrys strategy to attract ai workloads through policy incentives and massive capacity expansions.
