Record Notes
Kazakhstan's Prime Minister's office describes Data Center Valley in Ekibastuz, Pavlodar Region, as a state-backed project to create the largest data-center campus in Central Asia with energy capacity up to 1 GW. The government says 1,400 hectares have been allocated, up to 100 MW has been prepared for a Greenfield zone, and further expansion plans include four 50 MW AI data-center stages. Astana Times reports the same official project scope.
ADCI keeps the selected 1,000 MW value as state-reported future program/campus energy capacity, not current delivered IT load. The public body removes the prior unsupported $30B investment statement until a source-backed investment value is verified.
