The Uberl\u00e2ndia campus will deliver 400MW of AI-ready compute capacity and boost Brazil\u2019s position in the global digital economy.<\/p>\n
RT-One plans to build Latin America\u2019s largest AI data centre<\/a> after securing land in Uberl\u00e2ndia, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The US$1.2bn project will span over one million square metres, with 300,000 m\u00b2 reserved as protected green space.<\/p>\n The site will support high-performance computing, sovereign cloud services, and AI workloads, launching with 100MW capacity and scaling to 400MW. It will run on 100% renewable energy and utilise advanced cooling systems to minimise its environmental impact.<\/p>\n RT-One states that the project will prepare Brazil<\/a> to compete globally, generate skilled jobs, and train new talent for the digital economy. A wide network of partners, including Hitachi, Siemens, WEG, and Schneider Electric<\/a>, is collaborating on the development, aiming to ensure resilience and sustainability at scale.<\/p>\n The project is expected to stimulate regional growth, with jobs, training programmes, and opportunities for collaboration between academia and industry. Local officials, including the mayor of Uberl\u00e2ndia, attended the launch event to underline government support for the initiative.<\/p>\n Once complete, the Uberl\u00e2ndia facility will provide sovereign cloud capacity, high-density compute, and AI-ready infrastructure for Brazil and beyond. RT-One says the development will position the city as a hub for digital innovation and strengthen Latin America\u2019s role in the global AI economy.<\/p>\n
