2022年欧洲资料中心建设市场价值为548.130亿美元,预计2030年将达到965.1699亿美元;预计 2022 年至 2030 年复合年增长率为 7.3%。

不断增长的四级资料中心建设推动了欧洲资料中心建设市场

Tier 4资料中心是 Uptime Institute 将资料中心效能分为四级的系统中的最高认证。此层的预计每年正常运作时间为 99.995%。第 4 层资料中心提供最高水准的正常运作时间和容错能力,使其成为金融服务、医疗保健和电信等关键任务应用的理想选择。随着这些行业的发展和数位化的持续,对四级设施的需求增加,从而增加了新建设项目的数量。

此外,由于其先进的基础设施和严格的营运要求,与较低阶的资料中心相比,第四级资料中心的定价更高。这将为建筑公司和资料中心营运商带来更高的利润,吸引大量投资建造新资料中心。 Tier 4资料中心的建设需要各行业的专业知识,包括电气和机械工程、建筑材料和专业 IT 设备。这刺激了这些相关产业的成长,创造了更多的就业机会和经济效益。此外,EBRC 等公司还包括多个名为 Resilience Center West、CTRLS Datacenters Ltd.、Windhof 、 Resilience Center South、Kayl、European Reliance Center East、Betzdorf 和 Sunbird Inc. 的 4 级资料中心。建设不断增长预计在预测期内将为欧洲资料中心建设市场的成长提供一个充满希望的机会。

欧洲资料中心建设市场概况

由于欧洲经济的强劲、云端运算需求的成长以及对数位技术的依赖程度的增加等因素,资料中心建设市场正在经历成长。该市场涵盖各种基础设施类型和产品,包括电力基础设施、机械基础设施、通用基础设施、解决方案、专业服务。多家公司积极参与欧洲资料中心建设市场。例如,2023 年 10 月,法国资料中心营运商 Data4 聘请了 Hill International 的服务来监督西班牙圣奥古斯丁瓜达利克斯新园区的开发。该专案名为 MAD2,占地 6.5 公顷,包括四个资料中心,总容量为 80 兆瓦。 Data4 强调,这些新设施将利用其高效且适应性强的模式来适应客户的成长。此外,2023 年 10 月,国际知名託管服务供应商 Telehouse 宣布开始在法国 TH3 巴黎马格尼基地建造第二个资料中心。该资料中心将提供 12,000 平方米的大量 IT 建筑面积以及 18 MW 的电力容量。该公司决定以这种方式扩展其基础设施,符合其战略目标,即透过增强现有区域设施的託管和连接规定来增强欧洲和国家数位独立性,从而吸引全球互联网流量到该地区。预计此类发展将在预测期内推动欧洲资料中心建设市场的成长。

The Europe data center construction market was valued at US$ 54,813.00 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 96,516.99 million by 2030; it is estimated to register at a CAGR of 7.3% from 2022 to 2030.

Growing Construction of Tier 4 Data Centers Drives Europe Data Center Construction Market

A Tier 4 data center is the highest certification in the Uptime Institute's system of segmenting data center performance into four tiers. This tier accounts for an expected uptime of 99.995% per year. Tier 4 data centers provide the highest level of uptime and fault tolerance, making them ideal for mission-critical applications such as financial services, healthcare, and telecommunications. As these sectors grow and digitalization continues, the demand for Tier 4 facilities rises, which boosts the number of new construction projects.

Additionally, Tier 4 data centers command premium pricing compared to lower tiers due to their advanced infrastructure and stringent operational requirements. This leads to higher profits for construction companies and data center operators, attracting significant investment for construction of new data centers. The construction of Tier 4 data centers requires expertise from various industries, including electrical and mechanical engineering, construction materials, and specialized IT equipment. This stimulates growth in these related industries, creating additional employment opportunities and economic benefits. Furthermore, companies such as EBRC comprise several tier 4 data centers named Resilience Centre West, CTRLS Datacenters Ltd., Windhof, Resilience Centre South, Kayl, European Reliance Centre East, Betzdorf, and Sunbird Inc. Thus, the growing construction of Tier 4 data centers is expected to present a promising opportunity for the Europe data center construction market growth during the forecast period.

Europe Data Center Construction Market Overview

The data center construction market is experiencing growth due to factors such as the strength of the European economy, the rise in demand for cloud computing, and the increased reliance on digital technologies. The market encompasses various infrastructure types and offerings, including electrical infrastructure, mechanical infrastructure, general infrastructure, solutions, professional services. Several companies are actively involved in the data center construction market in Europe. For instance, in October 2023, Data4, a data center operator based in France, enlisted the services of Hill International to oversee the development of a new campus in San Agustin de Guadalix, Spain. The project, known as MAD2, will span across a 6.5-hectare site and encompass four data centers with a combined capacity of 80 MW. Data4 has emphasized that these new facilities will leverage their efficient and adaptable model to accommodate the growth of their customers. Moreover, in October 2023, Telehouse, an internationally recognized provider of colocation services, declared the commencement of construction for a second data center at its TH3 Paris Magny location in France. The data center will offer a substantial IT floor space measuring 12,000 square meters, along with an electrical power capacity of 18 MW. The company's decision to expand its infrastructure in this manner aligns with its strategic objective of enhancing European and national digital independence by augmenting hosting and connectivity provisions at its existing regional facilities, thereby attracting global internet traffic to the region. Such developments are expected to boost the data center construction market growth in Europe during the forecast period.
