Mumbai, May 14: In a major push to Maharashtra’s industrial and technology sectors, the state government on Thursday signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) worth Rs 1.14 lakh crore with AM Intelligence Labs Private Limited for the development of a large-scale green data centre and artificial intelligence infrastructure project in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).
The agreement was signed in the presence of Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at the committee hall in Mantralaya. Officials said the ambitious project would include the establishment of an Integrated Green Data Centre Park and a high-capacity AI Compute Hub in the MMR region.

The project is expected to create around 8,000 direct and indirect employment opportunities in the state, besides generating nearly 2,000 additional jobs during the construction phase.
According to the state government, the project will be entirely powered by renewable energy, aligning with Maharashtra’s focus on sustainable industrial growth and green infrastructure. Employment opportunities are expected across high-technology sectors, including software engineering, data science, and operational services.

The development will be executed in two phases. The first phase, with a capacity of 200 MW, is targeted for completion by 2028, while the remaining 300 MW capacity is expected to become operational by 2030.
