Join Invest in Denmark at the Datacloud Global Congress 2021 in Monaco
Meet us there to learn why Denmark is an attractive location for green data centres and explore availability of reliable green power, low latency fibre optic infrastructure and site and power purchase agreement opportunities.
Denmark is a highly digitalized society committed to reaching very ambitious climate action goals as part of its green transition: to reduce overall carbon emissions by 70% already by 2030 (from the 1990 levels) and to run 100% on renewable energy with 80% coming from wind and solar power.
Denmark is directly connected by fibre optic cables to Germany, the Netherlands, the UK/Ireland, Norway, Sweden and to the US. Companies like Apple, Facebook, Google, Digital Realty/Interxion, DigiPlex and Bulk Infrastructure have data centres in Denmark. Recently SAP announced the acquisition of two data centre sites in Denmark, close to the Danish/German border. Key drivers are availability of green power, fibre connectivity, availability of large scale, low cost, low risk sites, and the opportunity to make use of waste heat for the many Danish district heating grids.
Energinet, Denmark’s national Transmission System Operator (TSO), is committed to ensure that power is available and have clearly indicated where power is available from the transmission grid (50+ MW) with short time of delivery.
Denmark is also the location where data centre operators could develop even more sustainable data centres. Denmark actively supports energy efficiency and green energy R&D and demonstration projects through various programs.
Overall, Denmark offers favourable framework conditions: a supportive and stable political climate, excellent facilities for R&D and testing, a large talent pool and access to the most reliable power grid in Europe, in a growing market with many business opportunities in terms of serving the Central European and Nordic digital application market.
Large announced data centre projects include:
- Apple: 100+ ha site near Viborg. Construction in progress.
- Facebook: 50 ha site in Odense. Data centre put into operation September 2019.
- Google: 76 ha site in Fredericia and 131 ha site in Aabenraa. Construction of first data centre building at the Fredericia site is ongoing.
- Interxion (Digital Realty) is frequently expanding their colocation data centre in the Copenhagen Area.
- Global Connect operates a colocation data centre in the Copenhagen area and recently build a data centre near Aarhus.
- Bulk Infrastructure: Acquired a 5 ha site in Esbjerg, and first phase of their colocation data centre has been put into operation.
- Digiplex: Acquired a former Telia data centre in Central Copenhagen and is developing a colocation data centre site in the outskirts of Copenhagen.
