Patria-backed Omnia Joins $9.25 Billion TikTok Data Center Project

Omnia, a data center company owned by Brazilian investment firm Patria, has partnered with renewable energy generator Casa dos Ventos to develop a data center in Brazil, representing a 50 billion real (approximately $9.25 billion) investment. Located in the Pecem port complex in Ceara, the project anticipates TikTok as its primary client. Construction is slated to commence this year, with operations projected to begin in 2027. Omnia's investment will total 12 billion reais for infrastructure, while the client will fund the remaining IT equipment. Casa dos Ventos will invest an additional 3.5 billion reais to construct dedicated wind farms to power the facility. Upon completion, with an expected power consumption of 300 megawatts, the data center is anticipated to be the largest single-client facility in Brazil and the first authorized to focus on data export within the country.
