Data Centre Investment in Iberia

AI, cloud and digital infrastructure investment are accelerating demand for new data centre capacity across Spain and Portugal. However, access to secure, scalable and commercially viable power will determine where much of that development can take place.

This online briefing will examine the emerging regions capable of supporting Iberia’s next generation of data centres. It will consider how energy availability must align with grid capacity, land, fibre, water, planning and investment to create viable development locations.

Bringing together perspectives from data centre development, energy, infrastructure, government and investment, the discussion will provide an early introduction to the opportunities and delivery challenges shaping the Iberian market.
