AM Group Receives YEIDA Nod for Initial 350 MW Phase of 1 GW AI Compute Project in Uttar Pradesh
Feb 20, 2026
AM Group, an energy transition platform supported by the founders of Greenko Group, has announced that its affiliate, AM AI Labs, has secured a Letter of Intent (LoI) from the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA). The LoI pertains to land allocation for the first two phases of its planned 1 GW high-performance AI compute hub in Uttar Pradesh.
The initial rollout will include 150 MW in the first phase and 200 MW in the second, forming a combined 350 MW of computing capacity. This development follows the Memorandum of Understanding signed in January 2026 between AM Group and Invest UP, Government of Uttar Pradesh, during the Davos summit, to set up the large-scale AI infrastructure project in the state.
According to the company, the first 350 MW is targeted to become operational by 2028, while the complete 1 GW capacity is expected to be commissioned by 2030. The project is projected to involve an investment of approximately USD 25 billion and the deployment of nearly 500,000 advanced high-performance chips.
AM Group stated that once fully operational, the facility aims to become the world’s largest fully integrated AI platform. The ecosystem is designed to combine carbon-free energy generation, advanced data centre infrastructure, high-performance computing hardware, comprehensive software systems, and flexible consumption models ranging from AI Pods as a Service to Tokens as a Service.
A defining element of the initiative is its access to firm, on-demand carbon-free power at competitive global rates. This will be supported by renewable energy sources and strategically managed pumped storage assets, integrated through an in-house intelligent cloud-based energy architecture.
The company further highlighted that the project’s design integrates energy production, data centre engineering, liquid cooling systems, network topology, accelerator technologies, and software frameworks into a unified architecture aimed at optimizing performance and cost efficiency.
The large-scale AI compute hub is expected to draw substantial foreign direct investment and create thousands of specialized jobs, strengthening Uttar Pradesh’s position as a leading destination for AI-driven infrastructure in India.
