Vantage Data Centers to Invest $1 Billion to Develop Data Center Campus in Ireland

Vantage Data Centers has announced a significant expansion into the Irish market with the development of a multi-phase data center campus, known as DUB11. This strategic move represents an investment of over USD 1 billion, marking a major commitment to support the construction and delivery of the campus in one of Europe's largest data center markets.

The first two phases consist of 52 MW of IT capacity, with the first phase expected to be operational in late 2024. Upon completion, DUB1 will mark Vantage’s 14th data center in EMEA.

The company’s flagship Ireland campus will be located approximately nine miles (15 kilometres) from the Dublin City Center in Profile Park, Grange Castle, an area known for its data centers. Sited on 22 acres (nine hectares), the 405,000 square foot (38,000 square metres) campus will consist of one 32 MW facility and one 20 MW facility and has available land and power to add a third facility in the future.

The DUB1 campus will include an on-site 100MVA multi-fuel generation plant capable of running a combination of fuels, primarily hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO), a renewable fuel, and gas supplied by Gas Networks Ireland. 

David Howson, president of EMEA at Vantage Data Centers said, “Throughout this development, there will be a significant positive economic impact on the community as we employ more than 1,100 individuals during peak construction and create approximately 165 jobs to operate the campus.”
