The Europe green data center is expected to reach a value of $12.25 billion in 2028 from $7.94 billion in 2022, growing at a CAGR of 7.49%
Hyperscale players such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google, Meta, and Microsoft are procuring renewable energy for their data centers.
AWS meets 85% of its energy requirements from renewable energy. Google and Meta meet 100% of their energy requirements for data centers from renewable energy. Microsoft will power all data centers with 100% renewable energy by 2025.
Colocation operators in the Europe green data center market such as Equinix, Digital Realty, CyrusOne, Vantage Data Centers, OVHcloud, VIRTUS Data Centres, QTS Realty Trust, and others are proactively signing PPAs and procuring renewable energy to power their facilities to meet their sustainability goals.
In September 2022, OVHcloud started constructing a new facility in Germany, renewable energy will be procured from Energieversorgung Limburg (EVL).
GEOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS
The Nordic region is the most suitable region for green data center development as there is no need for water cooling. Nordic countries also source the maximum power supply from renewable energy.
Site selection for data centers across Europe will mostly depend on access to renewable energy. There is continuous investment in renewable energy projects across Nordics and Western Europe, where data center companies also participate.
KEY MARKET PARTICIPANTS
Renewable energy companies like Engie, TotalEnergies, EDF Renewables, ENEL Group, Orsted, and much more supply renewable energy to European green data center market operators. These companies are setting up new plants exclusively for data center companies, thus providing clean power sources for companies.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
-- Climate Neutral Data Center Pact has played a major role in increasing
the sustainability of European data centers as all the signatories will
be relying on renewable energy for their facilities by 2030.
-- As of October 2022, over 100 companies have signed the Climate Neutral
Data Center Pact, which operates more than 90% of data center capacity
across Europe.
-- Hyperscale operators in the Europe green data center market like AWS and
Microsoft and colocation operators like Kao Data, NorthC Datacenters,
and Data4 are taking multiple steps to improve their sustainability
credentials.
-- A few of the initiatives taken by major operators are:
-- Replacing diesel with HVO (Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil)
-- Use of recycled construction material
-- Use of Fuel cells, vegetable oil, and other sustainable fuel sources
-- Replacement of VRLA batteries with Lithium-ion batteries
-- Data Center investors are moving to new locations like Spain, Portugal,
Greece, and other sites where the availability of renewable energy is
high with average land prices.
-- Europe is at the forefront of renewable energy adoption. Europe's
commitment to adopting renewable energy and phasing out fossil fuels
will promote the growth of renewable energy adoption by data center
companies.
SEGMENTATION INSIGHTS
Electrical Infrastructure: Efficient and sustainable power infrastructure replacing traditional power systems.
-- The increasing demand for efficiency in data centers has fueled the
growth of efficient infrastructure such as lithium-ion UPS systems, fuel
cells, HVO, Natural Gas generators, nuclear energy reactors, and more.
-- AWS will use HVO across all of its European facilities. It has already
replaced diesel with HVO in Ireland facility.
-- Companies are using Microgrids and Smart grids to further stabilize
power supply to the data center and back to the grid in the hour of
need.
-- Microsoft has partnered with Eaton, which will outfit all of Microsoft's
data centers with grid-interactive UPS.
Mechanical Infrastructure: Europe is to witness an increase in advanced cooling technologies.
-- Most companies have deployed free cooling, and zero-water cooling,
leveraging the cold temperature of the region.
-- Colt Data Centre Services uses free cooling most of the year in the
Paris Southwest data center; the same will be used in the announced
expansion of this data center.
-- DigiPlex has deployed air-free cooling in Sweden's Stockholm 1 data
center.
General Construction: Adopting sustainable and innovative construction design/material in Europe in data centers.
-- Hyperscale operators like AWS, Microsoft, Apple, and Google are leading
in using sustainable materials to construct facilities.
-- Companies introduce technologies like green concrete, modular data
centers, and more in their data center construction.
-- Data4 has been using low-carbon concrete in its data centers since 2021.
-- Zetto, a TV streaming service provider, placed its servers in windmills
of WestfalenWind from where it has been streaming.
-- Companies are investing in additional infrastructure like Aquifer
Thermal Storage Systems to conserve heat.
