AI infrastructure company Nebius has announced plans to build a 300MW data center in New Jersey. The facility will be completed in phases, with the first due to be delivered by summer 2025.
In a statement, Nebius said the new Icelandic deployment would be powered by geothermal energy to reduce environmental impact, adding that physical deployment and installation at the Keflavik site are currently underway, with the new capacity expected to be operational and available by the end of Q1 2025.
“Our first major data center in the US clearly advances our strategic goal of expanding our footprint in the American market as we continue building Nebius into a leading global AI infrastructure provider,” said Arkady Volozh, founder and CEO of Nebius. “This site has the potential to host dedicated large-scale instances, and we have considerable flexibility to accelerate our deployment plans as and when we need to.”
He added: “With New Jersey, we now have secured expansion capacity to over 400MW. And we are actively reviewing options to extend this pipeline further as we seek to grow aggressively to multiples of where we are today.”
