Amazon announced that it will invest AU$20 billion ($12.97 billion) between 2025 and 2029 to expand and maintain its data center infrastructure in Australia, marking its largest technology investment in the country to date.

The funds will support increased server capacity and enable more advanced generative AI workloads, significantly boosting Australia’s digital capabilities. The expansion comes as part of Amazon Web Services’ (AWS) broader push to support AI-driven growth across global markets.

In addition to data infrastructure, Amazon said it will build three new solar farms in Victoria and Queensland, committing to purchase over 170 megawatts of clean energy from the projects.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese welcomed the move, calling it “a huge vote of confidence in the Australian economy” and a key step toward enhancing national productivity.

The investment is expected to support the growing demand for AI and cloud services in the region while contributing to Australia’s renewable energy goals.
