The reports stated that the Maharashtra government has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Lodha Developers Ltd. The project is for the development of a Green Integrated Data Centre Park in Palava. This a great stepping stone in the state’s digital infrastructure expansion.

The project has an estimated investment of ₹30,000 Crore. The Maharashtra government plans to position the state as a hub for sustainable, large-scale data centres and operations.

The park will span across 370 acres in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). It has a planned capacity of 2 gigawatts, designed to host several leading international and domestic players.

With this project, Maha govt expects to generate about 6,000 direct and indirect jobs. Lodha Developers will be taking charge as the master developer while various data centre operators set up their facilities within the park.

This development comes a year after Maharashtra unveiled its Green Integrated Data Centre Parks policy in October 2024. The policy will need data centres, required for their high energy consumption to run on renewable and alternative energy sources.

The company plans to establish three such parks across MMR to meet increasing demands for digital infrastructure driven by cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and the rapid adoption of digital services.
