US EditionAmazon to spend $20B on data centers in Pennsylvania, including one next to a nuclear power plant
- On June 9, 2025, Amazon revealed it would allocate at least $20 billion to develop a pair of data center sites in Pennsylvania, one of which will be located adjacent to the Susquehanna nuclear power facility.
- The investment follows growing demand for cloud computing and artificial intelligence, with Amazon partnering with Talen Energy, majority owner of the Susquehanna plant, to secure a 'behind the meter' power arrangement still under Federal Energy Regulatory Commission review.
- One campus will be established in Salem Township close to the Susquehanna nuclear power plant, which has a generating capacity of approximately 2.5 gigawatts, while the other will be located in Fairless Hills at the Keystone Trade Center, a logistics facility situated on the site of a former U.S. Steel mill.
- Governor Josh Shapiro described the agreement as Pennsylvania's biggest private sector investment to date, noting it will create more than 1,250 jobs and boost local revenue.
- Amazon's commitment signals a major expansion of AI infrastructure in the state and reflects a broader trend of tech firms seeking direct, clean energy sources to power data centers rapidly.
