Google has started building a $1 billion data center in north of London that will be powered by Scottish offshore wind.

The data center will be located on a 33-acre site that the global tech giant purchased in the town of Waltham Cross in Hertfordshire. Once complete, it will help ensure reliable digital services to Google Cloud customers and Google users in the UK.
