Technical Executive Summary
Joint Venture for Tier-4 Hyperscale Green Data Center in Karachi, Pakistan
This summary outlines the technical and financial feasibility of a proposed Joint Venture (JV) between Green Vision Energy (GVE) and Google Cloud to develop a Tier-4 hyperscale data center on 9 acres of prime industrial land in Korangi Creek (NIP Zone), Karachi, Pakistan. The facility, designed as a 10-story high-density structure, will support AI-ready workloads with 24/7 Carbon-Free Energy (CFE) via a solar-wind hybrid grid, directly aligning with Google's 2030 goal to operate data centers on 100% CFE hourly65a111 174875.
This project positions Pakistan as a potential new Google Cloud Region (e.g., asia-south3), addressing the absence of dedicated infrastructure in the country while leveraging proximity to South Asian regions like Mumbai (asia-south1) and Delhi (asia-south2)252485 9c52ce.
Integration of Google's AI-compute hardware with GVE's proprietary "Gold Grade" MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, Verification) carbon system via GPCCPEDIA platform, ensuring blockchain-verified offsets and real-time emissions tracking compliant with high-quality verified standards3d9fd0.
Projected ROI of 35% over 5 years, with PKR 5B initial capex yielding PKR 10B+ in revenue from colocation, cloud services, and carbon credits. Government incentives (STZ status, SIFC facilitation) reduce effective costs by 30%.
Supports Google's expansion in emerging markets, similar to recent partnerships with NextEra Energy and Intersect Power for co-located clean energy data centers3525d2 0236ec 0c2e7b.
The data center will adhere to Google's hyperscale standards, targeting 5,000+ servers initially (scalable to 20,000+), with a footprint exceeding 100,000 sq ft across 10 floors016c46 70a7f4. Design incorporates modular architecture for rapid deployment and customization.
10-story vertical build (floors 1-2: Power/Utility; 3-8: Server Halls; 9-10: AI/Edge Compute). Redundant N+2 topology for Tier-4 uptime (>99.995%).
Liquid immersion cooling integrated with AI-optimized controls, achieving PUE <1.10, surpassing Google's global TTM PUE of 1.094d3e52.
AI-ready racks (48U designs) supporting 1MW+ per rack. Compatibility with Google's custom hardware (TPUs v5+).
Direct connectivity to submarine cables (SMW4, AAE-1, PEACE) for <10ms latency to Mumbai/Delhi regions. 400Gbps+ fiber backbone.
Gold Grade MRV System: Blockchain-secured platform (GPCCPEDIA) with 27 APIs for real-time CO₂ tracking. Verifies offsets to Gold Standard, enabling premium credit sales ($10-15/ton)d28f7c.
Emissions Impact: Projected annual savings: 200K tons CO₂e, contributing to Google's net-zero value chaine8ef4b.
Assumptions: 5-year horizon; inflation 8%; discount rate 12%. Based on Google's recent €5.5B Germany investmentabbd64 d3910c.
PKR 200M (Year 1) to PKR 4B (Year 5); Margins 40%+ post-break-even (Month 18)
ROI: 35% (IRR 28%); NPV: PKR 8B
+10% energy costs: ROI 28%; Carbon market +20%: ROI 45%
Site ready-to-build; pilot hybrid grid operational (GVE's 500+ projects). Integration roadmap: 6-month proof-of-concept with Google's TPUs.
Pakistan's digital economy (10GW solar target by 2030) and no local Google region create demand. Synergies with Google's India expansions (1GW clusters)8c9853.
Policy shifts – Mitigated via SIFC letter (attached in proposal)
Supply chain delays – Local sourcing + Google's vendor network
Emissions growth from AI (Google's +51% since 2019) – Offset via Gold Grade system0fcc67
Grid instability – Dual redundancy + storage
We propose a virtual technical review with Google's SVP Infrastructure team within 30 days, followed by on-site due diligence.
