Saudi, UAE Drive Gulf Data Center Growth
S&P Global predicts that the capacity of data centers in the Gulf countries will triple over the next five years, driven by the expansion of artificial intelligence applications and cloud computing. It appears that Saudi Arabia and the UAE are leading this transformation, with investments totaling around 56 billion riyals in Saudi Arabia alone since 2021. During this period, the capacity of Saudi data centers has increased by more than six times. However, this boom faces challenges related to geopolitical risks and the importance of securing electricity supplies and cooling systems to ensure the effective implementation of projects and to achieve economic viability.
