Google will invest €5.5 billion ($6.4 billion) in data centers and office expansions across Germany through 2029, according to Bloomberg. The plan includes new infrastructure in the Frankfurt region and expanded operations in Berlin, Frankfurt, and Munich.

The company expects the overall initiative to contribute over €1 billion annually to Germany’s GDP and support around 9,000 jobs through 2029.

Google is extending its 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy partnership with Engie in Germany through 2030. The company projects that 85 percent of its German operations will run on carbon-free energy by 2026, supported by new wind and solar projects and energy storage systems.
