Is this Germany’s most advanced AI factory?
Germany’s Deutsche Telekom has built a cutting-edge underground “AI factory” in Munich, boosting Germany’s national computing capacity by 50% and providing companies with long‑awaited access to advanced AI and graphics processing power. Housed 30 meters below ground in 14 high‑density pods, each containing 512 Nvidia GPUs. Each pod delivers the performance of a 1,000‑square‑meter data center in just 80 square meters.
Powered entirely by renewable energy and cooled naturally by the nearby Eisbach stream, the AI factory dramatically reduces infrastructure costs for businesses while enabling real‑time processing for complex industrial applications. Once renovations are complete, the waste heat generated by the servers will also be used to heat surrounding apartments and offices.
