Brookfield is set to give Britain a major boost by investing multi-billions into developing a new data center at one of the country’s established power generation sites. The global asset management firm has entered into an agreement with energy firm Drax Group and its neocloud Radiant to create a new AI-centric computing facility at Drax Power Station in North Yorkshire. The development will see Britain utilise its industrial power infrastructure to create a new hub for AI investment in the country as demand for advanced computing powers surges across Europe.
