09:15 AM EST, 11/11/2025 (MT Newswires) -- (Updates with German finance ministry's response in the fourth paragraph.)

Alphabet's (GOOG, GOOGL) Google ( GOOG ) will invest about 5 billion euros ($5.8 billion) in Germany, Reuters reported Tuesday, citing an industry source familiar with the matter.

The tech giant plans to build a new data center near Frankfurt and expand its facility in the city of Hanau, the report said, citing another source.

Reuters reported last week that Google ( GOOG ) officials would disclose investment plans for tech infrastructure and data centers powered by renewable energies at an event alongside German Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil.

Google ( GOOG ) will hold a press conference on Tuesday, alongside Klingbeil, a spokesperson for the German finance ministry told MT Newswires in an email.

Google ( GOOG ) did not respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
