We’re introducing the 300 MW New Jersey region and expanding to Iceland

We’re thrilled to announce a major upgrade to our US-based compute capacity. To bring it to life, we’ve joined forces with DataOne, an AI hosting infrastructure company, to ensure that the first phase of the New Jersey facility goes live this summer. We’re also launching a colocation facility in Iceland with Verne, a provider of sustainably powered data centers across the Nordics, and expect it to go live this month.

New Jersey custom-built data center

The collaboration between Nebius and DataOne takes a distinctive approach to DC construction and energy efficiency. The facility will be built using Nebius’ own design, while the partnership leverages DataOne’s expertise to achieve an ambitious goal: constructing a state-of-the-art data center in just 20 weeks.

At the core of the facility is an innovative approach to power generation. We’ll leverage behind-the-meter electricity and advanced energy technology to maximize sustainability while simultaneously strengthening operational reliability — exactly what AI innovators need for their workloads.

The New Jersey site — our first major data center in the US — will go live phase by phase and is expandable up to a total of 300 MW. We previously committed to 100 MW of installed capacity by the end of 2025, and we are prepared to accelerate beyond that if required to meet demand.

Iceland colocation deployment

Meet our new colocation in the beautiful Icelandic town of Keflavik, where we will be deploying a 10 MW compute cluster. Thanks to our partner Verne’s efforts, the site runs entirely on Iceland’s 100% renewable hydroelectric and geothermal energy resources.

Physical deployment and software installation are underway, and the new capacity is expected to be fully operational and available by the end of March.

Additional capacity and overall picture

In addition to the new greenfield facility in New Jersey and the colocation in Iceland, we’ve also agreed on a second deployment phase in the previously announced Kansas City data center. We expect to launch this additional capacity by the end of Q2 2025. Meanwhile, the delivery of the first phase remains on track for this month.

Our own data center in Finland, colocations in France and Iceland, the extended Kansas City deployment and a massive 300 MW New Jersey data center — this is what the map of Nebius’ AI-dedicated availability zones will soon look like.

It will continue to evolve throughout the year as we grow. Rapidly expanding our data center footprint is the only way to meet the increasing demands of AI innovators in the United States and Europe — and to continue providing them with our scalable, flexible and powerful compute.
