US data center firm Prime is expanding into Europe with a new development in Denmark. The company announced plans this week for a campus in Esbjerg in partnership with Brunswick Real Estate.
The company is aiming to develop a 640,000 sqm (6.88 million sq ft) campus – known as ESB01 – on land along Nordre Tovrupvej. The land is owned by the Esbjerg Municipality.
“We are proud to announce our plans for the Esbjerg Data Center and to begin the EIA process,” said Nicholas Laag, founder and CEO of Prime Data Centers. “This project represents Prime’s commitment to Denmark and the broader Nordic region as we work to meet rapidly growing demand for digital infrastructure that powers hyperscale cloud, AI, and HPC workloads.”
The first phase would offer 160MW of IT capacity, with Prime investing some €2 billion ($2.3bn). A total of €6 billion ($6.91bn) could be invested to reach the full 550MW. Prime has committed to exploring opportunities for waste heat recovery.
