Amazon to Invest $20bn in Data Centers in Pennsylvania

Amazon is committing to investing $20 billion in Pennsylvania to expand its AI infrastructure. The company will initially focus that investment on Salem Township and Falls Township, intending to develop "innovation campuses."

"Pennsylvania is competing again—and I'm proud to announce that with Amazon's commitment of at least $20 billion to build new state-of-the-art data center campuses across our commonwealth, we have secured the largest private sector investment in the history of Pennsylvania," said Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro.

"This initial investment from Amazon will create thousands of good-paying, stable jobs as Pennsylvania workers build, maintain, and operate the first two data center campuses in Luzerne County and Bucks County."

"Amazon's multi-billion-dollar investment in Pennsylvania reinforces our dedication to advancing AI innovation while creating lasting economic opportunities in the state," added David Zapolsky, Amazon's chief global affairs and legal officer.
