當地時間6月14日,亞馬遜宣佈,計劃在今年至2029年期間在澳大利亞投資200億澳元(約合130億美元),用於發展其數據中心基礎設施。

在一份聲明中,亞馬遜表示,這項投資將支持澳大利亞對雲計算和人工智能日益增長的需求,並加速其應用和能力提升。

對此,澳大利亞總理Anthony Albanese表示,這項投資是全球科技公司在澳大利亞迄今規模最大的投資。 

Albanese週六在前往加拿大參加七國集團峯會的途中,在西雅圖停留期間會見了亞馬遜網絡服務首席執行官Matt Garman

他還發推表示,澳大利亞正在受益於AI革命,亞馬遜在澳大利亞數據中心投資200億,將促進經濟和生產力發展。這是對澳大利亞經濟的巨大信任。

工業和創新部長Tim Ayres也指出,這項投資對澳大利亞的數字基礎設施“意義重大”。

他指出: “抓住這一機遇符合澳大利亞的利益,我們必須成爲技術的創造者,也必須成爲技術的受益者。” 

此外,亞馬遜還表示,正在維多利亞州和昆士蘭州投資三個新的太陽能發電場,並承諾將在這三個發電場購買總計超過170兆瓦的電力。
