Global spending on data centers is projected to reach $1 trillion by 2026 and double to $2.1 trillion by 2028, driven by increasing demand for AI services. BofA Global Research analysts estimate the data center market, valued at $275 billion in 2022, could grow to $2.93 trillion by 2030, with AI as the main growth driver. The annual growth rate for the market is expected to be 37% from 2025 to 2030. Chip manufacturers and server developers are among the primary beneficiaries of this expansion, particularly in the U.S. Construction costs for data centers are estimated at $49 million per megawatt, with IT-related expenses accounting for 78% of total investments. AI-focused data centers, or Neoclouds, have higher construction costs but require less space than traditional centers.
