As an aside, Google has owned land in Kronstorf for a decade. Presumably they pay property tax on it, even if it's not used? https://www.datacenterknowledge.co

Anyway, a little after that came out, I asked someone about the project's timeline. They didn't go into details, but they weren't optimistic. I don't know what has been going on between the two sides, but, ten years later, the land is still undeveloped. In the meantime, Google has built, expanded or announced data centers in Finland, Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands and Denmark. I wonder what separates those from Austria.
