Northern Lincolnshire AI Growth Zone (NGLAIZ) will provide 2.5 GW of AI computing power and £20bn+ of inward investment, boosting the regional and national economy and supporting UK leadership in AI.

 

The project will see the roll out of four AI technology campuses, each centred around a new AI data centre, with energisation by 2028/9. One of the data centres – Humber Tech Park – has already been granted planning permission and can provide 384 GW of computing power.

​

NLAIGZ will enable AI training facilities for businesses across the UK and the world, while encouraging the application of AI to local manufacturing and heavy industries.

​

With 20% of the UK’s electricity generated in the region – including 33% of the UK’s offshore wind capacity – energy sourcing for the project is assured. Greystoke has 2 GWs of accepted grid connections.

​​

Investment in NLAIGZ will accelerate the path to net zero for the UK’s largest industrial cluster and draw on its extensive skills base.

​

The project will bring over 14,000 new construction jobs, 1,650 new operational jobs on site. NLGAIZ will prioritise the use of UK-made steel in its construction, by adopting the UK Steel Charter.

NLAIGZ is supported by local councils, members of parliament, Humber Energy Board and British Steel.
