Alphabet plans to invest $3.3 billion to build two data centers in South Carolina.

On Sept 26, Reuters reported that Alphabet (GOOGL.O) plans to invest $3.3 billion in South Carolina to build two new data centers, according to CEO Sundar Pichai. This investment comes as Google and its competitors ramp up infrastructure spending to support AI development. The new data center campuses will be located in Dorchester County, and the company will also expand its existing campus in Berkeley County, according to a statement from the South Carolina governor’s office on Thursday.

The new facilities in Dorchester County, located at the Pine Hill Business Campus in Ridgeville and Winding Woods Commerce Park in St. George, represent a $2 billion investment and will create 200 new operational jobs. Additionally, Alphabet will invest $1.3 billion in Berkeley County, according to the statement. In July, Alphabet reported $13 billion in capital expenditures for the June quarter and informed investors that quarterly spending for the remainder of 2024 would be at or above $12 billion.
