Der US-Softwareriese Microsoft treibt seine Milliardeninvestition in neue Infrastruktur für Cloud-Computing und Künstliche Intelligenz in Nordrhein-Westfalen voran. Beim symbolischen Spatenstich in Bergheim im Rheinischen Revier haben Kommunalpolitiker die Baugenehmigungen für zwei der geplanten drei Rechenzentren überreicht. An den Standorten Bergheim und Bedburg lagen zuvor nur Teilgenehmigungen für Erdarbeiten vor, nun kann der Hochbau starten. Für den dritten Standort in Elsdorf ist das Genehmigungsverfahren noch nicht so weit fortgeschritten.

Microsoft plant insgesamt Investitionen von 3,2 Milliarden Euro, von denen der größte Teil in die drei Rechenzentren im Rheinischen Revier fließen soll, ein kleinerer Anteil ist für Hessen vorgesehen. Während der Bauphase rechnet der Konzern mit mehreren Tausend Beschäftigten auf den Baustellen; nach Inbetriebnahme sollen in den Rechenzentren selbst mehrere Hundert dauerhafte Arbeitsplätze entstehen. Die Anlagen sind auf Anwendungen der Künstlichen Intelligenz und umfangreiche Cloud-Dienste ausgerichtet und sollen Unternehmen in der Region eine „optimale Datennutzung“ ermöglichen.

„Wir wollen hier langfristig sein“, sagte Microsoft-Deutschlandchefin Agnes Heftberger. Nordrhein-Westfalen sei ein idealer Standort, weil dort zahlreiche Konzerne mit hohem Datenbedarf ansässig seien, darunter etwa Bayer, RWE, Metro und Bertelsmann. Bundesdigitalminister Karsten Wildberger (CDU) wertete die Investition als „Auszeichnung für unseren Digital-Standort“ und sprach davon, dass aus „einer Region des Umbruchs“ nun „eine Region des Aufbruchs“ werde. Rechenzentren seien „die Fabriken des 21. Jahrhunderts“, sagte der Minister beim Spatenstich.

NRW-Wirtschaftsministerin Mona Neubaur (Grüne) bezeichnete das Projekt als „starkes Signal für erfolgreichen Wandel hin zu einer digitalen und klimafreundlichen Wirtschaft“. Die großen Hyperscaler-Rechenzentren seien „der zentrale Motor auf unserem Weg von der Kohle zur KI“ und dienten der Sicherung der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit. Aus dem 3,2-Milliarden-Euro-Investitionspaket finanziert Microsoft zudem Schulungsangebote: Externe Fachleute eines Fördervereins für Jugend und Sozialarbeit besuchen Schulen, um Grundlagen zu Künstlicher Intelligenz und anderen Digitalthemen zu vermitteln.
