Record Notes
Romania's Black Sea AI Gigafactory is a proposed AI infrastructure bid submitted through the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking process, not a completed single-site campus. Government-based reporting says the project would involve more than 100,000 AI accelerators across two locations: Cernavoda for phase one and Doicesti for phase two. DataCenter Forum says the project would be powered by up to 1,500 MW of zero-emission energy, primarily nuclear, and SeeNews describes the same maximum energy mix for the bid. Balkan Green Energy News similarly reports that the project could require 1.5 GW of electricity capacity, combining nuclear power and renewables, and would serve Romania, the Black Sea region, and Serbia.
ADCI keeps the selected 1,500 MW figure as a state-reported proposed maximum program power envelope, not current delivered IT load. The record remains region-only because the public proposal spans Cernavoda and Doicesti.
