Wedoany.com Report-Nov. 21, Google has announced a €5.5 billion investment program in Germany spanning 2026 to 2029, focused on digital infrastructure and office expansion. The initiative is expected to generate approximately 9,000 jobs annually across the country.

Key projects include construction of a new data center in Dietzenbach, which will provide advanced AI and cloud services to major German companies such as Mercedes-Benz and Koenig & Bauer. Google will also enlarge its existing data center in Hanau, originally commissioned in 2023. Office space will be significantly increased in Munich, Frankfurt, and Berlin to accommodate growing teams.

The company will extend its 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy partnership with French utility Engie in Germany through 2030, supporting the shift toward renewable energy sources for its facilities.

Germany’s Federal Minister of Finance Lars Klingbeil welcomed the commitment: “These are investments for future jobs in Germany. This is exactly what we need right now. Alongside our public investments, we want to mobilise far more private investment. Germany is an attractive location for investors from all over the world.”

Dr. Lennart Jahnke, Chief Digital Officer at University Hospital Freiburg, highlighted the practical impact: “Modern medicine would not be possible if we did not work with the latest technologies. With Google Cloud, we have a partner who supports us with their expertise and their comprehensive AI and data platform.”

The multi-year plan reinforces Google’s long-term presence in Germany and strengthens the country’s position as a leading European hub for cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and digital innovation. By combining new data center capacity with expanded office footprint and clean-energy commitments, the investment supports both economic growth and sustainable development across multiple regions.
