Amazon announced plans Monday to build a new data center at the Keystone Trade Center in Bucks County, marking part of a sweeping $20 billion investment across Pennsylvania aimed at advancing artificial intelligence and cloud computing infrastructure.

Governor Josh Shapiro called it the largest private investment in the state’s history.

Along with the Bucks County facility in Falls Township, Amazon also plans to construct a data center adjacent to the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station, a nuclear power plant in Salem Township, Luzerne County.

The company expects the statewide initiative to create 1,250 new high-skilled jobs and support thousands more across the Amazon Web Services supply chain. While Amazon did not provide specific details on the size or scope of each individual project, it confirmed that additional data center sites in Pennsylvania are under consideration.
