The planned data center will offer a potential capacity of up to 100 megawatts (MW). It will be located in Ba\u015fkent OIZ, a strategic industrial zone in the capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This move supports T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s growing focus on artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure. According to Stanford University&#8217;s AI Index 2025, the country saw a 198% rise in AI talent between 2016 and 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement follows a wave of tech collaboration. In 2023, the UAE and T\u00fcrkiye signed MOUs worth over USD 50 billion to boost cooperation in various sectors, including technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Khazna is expanding its presence worldwide with a fast-growing network of hyperscale data centers. These facilities offer the foundation for digital economies, enabling advanced applications in AI, cloud computing, and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ankara data center will be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Modular in design<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scalable to meet evolving demand<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Flexible for different workloads (AI, cloud, and critical apps)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In the initial phase, it will focus on cloud services. Future phases will support more complex and high-density computing needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Khazna places a strong emphasis on <a href=\"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/category\/green-tech\/\">sustainability<\/a>. The Ankara facility will include several energy-efficient and low-emission features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Use of low-GWP refrigerants (no HFCs)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Low-carbon and recycled building materials<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>High-efficiency adiabatic chillers for free cooling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wastewater reuse systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Generators capable of running on Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These innovations aim to reduce the center\u2019s carbon footprint while maintaining performance and reliability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hassan Alnaqbi, CEO of Khazna Data Centers, said the new site would contribute to T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s tech-driven economy and ongoing digital transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>H.E.
