Poor grid planning could shift Europe's data centre geography
Summary: Poor grid planning in Europe’s leading data center hubs could lead to a shift in investment, with developers seeking locations with easier power access and shorter lead times. By 2035, half of Europe’s data center capacity could be located outside current hubs like Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin. This shift could result in billions of euros in lost investments and slower job growth in congested countries.
