Saudi Arabia’s data center capacity has expanded from 68 megawatts in 2021 to more than 440 megawatts in 2025. The country now has over 60 centers, with investments exceeding SAR 16 billion. These centers consumed 2.8 terawatt-hours of electricity in 2024, while KAPSARC scenarios project that consumption could rise to between 10.2 and 42.2 terawatt-hours by 2030. The challenge also includes the cost of cooling and the development of electricity grids. At the same time, expansion is creating investment opportunities, including an announced financing framework of up to $1.2 billion to support AI infrastructure and data centers with a target capacity of 250 megawatts. The sector’s success, however, depends on turning financing into operational projects and improving energy and water efficiency.
