Nebius Plans 300MW Data Center in New Jersey

Nebius Group has announced plans to construct a new 300 MW data center in New Jersey, marking a significant expansion of its U.S. cloud computing capacity. The facility, developed in collaboration with DataOne, will be built in phases, with the first phase expected to be completed by summer 2025. This move aligns with Nebius's goal of achieving 100 MW of installed capacity by the end of 2025, with potential for further expansion depending on demand. In addition to the New Jersey site, Nebius is also increasing capacity at its existing Kansas City colocation and launching a new facility in Keflavik, Iceland, which will utilize geothermal energy. Founder Arkady Volozh emphasized the strategic importance of the New Jersey site in enhancing Nebius's footprint in the American market and supporting its growth as an AI infrastructure provider. The company's recent developments reflect a robust plan to ramp up operations in both the U.S. and Europe over the coming years.
