UPC Volt ने 22 जानेवारी, 2026 रोजी डावोस येथे जागतिक आर्थिक मंचावर (World Economic Forum) తెలంగాణ सरकारसोबत एक सामंजस्य करार (MoU) केला. नेदरलँडस्थित UPC Renewables Group आणि VOLT Data Centers यांचा संयुक्त उपक्रम असलेल्या UPC Volt ने, తెలంగాణमधील भारत फ्यूचर सिटी येथे 100 MW AI-रेडी डेटा सेंटर स्थापन करण्यासाठी पाच वर्षांत ₹5,000 कोटींची गुंतवणूक करण्याची घोषणा केली आहे [2, 10, 11, 13, 15, 27]. या प्रकल्पामुळे बांधकाम टप्प्यात 3,000 हून अधिक प्रत्यक्ष आणि अप्रत्यक्ष रोजगार तसेच कार्यान्वयन टप्प्यात 800 हून अधिक रोजगार निर्माण होण्याची अपेक्षा आहे [2, 10, 11, 13, 15, 27]. ही गुंतवणूक राज्याच्या 'Telangana Rising 2047' या दृष्टिकोन्याशी सुसंगत आहे, ज्याचा उद्देश तेलंगणाला भारताचे प्रमुख AI डेटा सेंटर हब बनवणे आहे [2, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 27].
प्रगत संगणनासाठी शाश्वत ऊर्जा
A key feature of the UPC Volt project is its commitment to powering the data centre with a dedicated 100 MW round-the-clock renewable energy facility. This ensures the digital infrastructure will operate on carbon-free energy, supporting the state's net-zero development objectives [2, 10, 11, 13, 27]. The facility will be integrated with Telangana's Green Open Access framework, promoting a sustainable, 'power-first' operational model essential for hyperscale and AI workloads [2, 10, 11, 13, 27]. Telangana's proactive approach includes positioning itself to attract next-generation compute infrastructure by offering incentives for high-density GPUs, large-scale training compute, and advanced liquid cooling technologies [2, 11, 16, 27]. The state also has established policies such as the Telangana AI Framework and Data Analytics Policy to foster innovation and infrastructure development in these areas [22].
धोरणात्मक दृष्टीकोन आणि आर्थिक उद्दिष्ट्ये
The investment underscores Telangana's ambition to achieve a $3 trillion economy by 2047, driven by high-calibre digital infrastructure [2, 8, 10, 11, 12, 27]. Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy highlighted the importance of this development for building robust digital infrastructure while adhering to net-zero development roadmaps [2, 8, 10, 11, 27]. Minister for IT and Industries, D. Sridhar Babu, who was instrumental in securing the investment, emphasized Telangana's aggressive push to become a global AI data centre hub [2, 11, 16, 27]. The state is structuring its economic growth through three distinct zones dedicated to the service sector, manufacturing, and agriculture, aligning with its broader 'Telangana Rising 2047' roadmap [2, 11, 27].
