这个新的项目将建造于诺森伯兰郡的布莱斯地区,预计会成为欧洲最大的人工智能数据中心之一,届时将创造约4000个就业岗位。
建厂选址的这块土地原先归英国电池初创公司Britishvolt所有。然而今年早些时候,在Britishvolt宣告破产后,黑石集团便买下了这块原先计划建造大型电动汽车电池厂的土地。
英国首相斯塔默表示,这笔投资表明英国“对商业持开放态度”,他称,黑石的投资是“对英国投下的巨大信任票”,证明英国已重新成为“全球舞台上的主要参与者”。
黑石的这个数据中心计划最初是在四月份公布的,斯塔默当时还未当选首相。诺森伯兰郡议会官员Richard Wearmouth曾指出,该项目将使英格兰东北部“处于人工智能革命的中心”。
英国政府最新宣布时表示,该项目的建设将提供约1200个工作岗位,并且该数据中心将创造约2700个相关工作岗位。该项目预计将于明年开工。
黑石集团首席运营官乔恩·格雷(Jon Gray)表示,该公司致力于英国市场,此外黑石还承诺将为该地区的技能培训和交通基础设施投资1.1亿英镑。
包括黑石集团在内,越来越多的金融领域公司将人工智能数据中心纳入其资产范围。例如,近期贝莱德与微软联手筹集了300亿美元的资金用于投资数据中心和其他人工智能基础设施,阿联酋为投资人工智能而设立的MGX公司也参与了该计划。
