New Study Says Manufacturing Excellence to Drive Widespread Job Creation in AI and Data Center Infrastructure

At the second annual PA Data Center & Energy Innovation Summit, the Pittsburgh Technology Council (PTC) and the Philadelphia Alliance for Capital and Technologies (PACT) released a report titled, "Pennsylvania Builds the Cloud: Manufacturing, Energy, and Data Center Development." Prepared by Mangum Economics, the research highlights Pennsylvania’s emergence as a global leader in digital infrastructure, and its opportunities to capitalize on that momentum.

Why Data Centers and Energy Projects Are Rewriting the Region’s Economic Future

Large clusters of buildings housing enormous computing and digital storage capabilities, consuming electricity at tremendous levels to keep up with the processing requirements created by the soaring expansion of artificial intelligence and the rise in electrification of businesses, products, and vehicles – data centers have become a ubiquitous presence in American society. This phenomenon has taken hold in the Pittsburgh region, as well, with data centers planned for Springdale Borough in Allegheny County, Homer City in Indiana County, and Beaver Valley in Beaver County. Learn about some of the major projects underway that are shaping our future.
