Colt Data Centre Services (DCS), a leading provider of global hyperscale and large enterprise data centre solutions, has announced that it has secured 10 new parcels of land across Europe and APAC for the development of greenfield hyperscale data centres. These include sites in London, Frankfurt, Paris and Japan.
The new sites see the capacity of Colt DCS’ portfolio increase dramatically by over 500MVA of secured power to support the development of hyperscale data centres. With these latest land purchases, Colt DCS is on track to be able to develop around 100MW of IT power in its key global markets to support its customers’ growing capacity requirements.
The announcement follows the news that Colt DCS has refined its current portfolio to allow more focus on its hyperscale and large enterprise strategy with the sale of 12 colocation sites across Europe to AltasEdge Data Centres.
“This announcement marks yet another major milestone in the acceleration of its hyperscale strategy and positions Colt DCS as a major hyperscale and large enterprise data centre provider in the market,” said Niclas Sanfridsson, CEO, Colt DCS. “Colt DCS has truly put a stake in the ground with the acquisition of these 10 new sites, signalling to the market the continued success of our approach. This is an extremely exciting time for the business as our vision of becoming one of the most trusted and customer-centric hyperscale data centre operators in the industry is realised.”
