AirTrunk, backed by Blackstone, has proposed investing about ₹1.03 lakh crore ($11B) in two hyperscale data centre campuses in Andhra Pradesh, aiming for 1.8 GW capacity with low-water cooling tech. This follows Google's $15B AI hub plan in the state, both projects raising concerns over local water and power resources amid efforts to boost Andhra Pradesh as a tech hub.
