The installation of four large data centers occupying one area 400 hectares for AWS and Microsoft they have adopted and will work on the change in the next few years. The data are «abrumadores», indicated the regional president: «It deals with the largest economic inversion in the history of the community: 15,700 million euros, a 30% more of the Aragonese GDP and 6,800 workers in full time in form annually between 2024 and 2033″.
It will strengthen an “ecosystem” of surrededor businessesas it happened, he revived Azcon, when he appalled General Motors (hoy Stellantis).
The action strengthened this day «which changes the course of the autonomous community» with the declaration of autonomous interest for Amazon, whose director in Spain and Portugal, Suzana Curic, said that the «differential factors of this land have sido available land, large surfaces, access to renewable energy sources (whose centers use 100% renewable electricity) and local talent, in addition to the enormous growth potential.”
The Aragonese president, who recognized that this Mars receiving the medal of the Community to the Infanta Leonor, was a very important day in politics, underlined that today it is important in the economy: «Amazon has turned to community opportunitieswas able to see that our geographical position allows us to be one of the main logistics centers at national level and within Europe and to count on exceptional natural resources, which allow us to be a powerhouse in the generation of renewable energy ».
With the technological boom, Azcón was confident in positioning Aragon with a detached position in the industrial market: «Aragon has gone from being an eminently agricultural community and a powerhouse in the pharmaceutical, automotive and traditional motor sectors, today it has recently unified the technological, which marks the future” of this community forever.
