Vantage starts construction on a second data center at Frankfurt II campus

Vantage Data Centers, a leading global provider of hyperscale data centre campuses, has announced the start of construction on a second data centre on its Frankfurt II campus.

Adding to its existing presence in the most sought-after European market, Vantage has broken ground on a second facility (FRA22) at its second campus in Frankfurt. The 16MW, 130,000 square feet (12,000 square meters) facility is sited on seven acres (three hectares) in Raunheim.

Once fully developed, the campus will include 56MW of IT capacity across two data centres. Vantage is also continuing to develop its first 55MW Frankfurt campus, located in Offenbach, approximately 30 kilometres from Raunheim. Once fully developed, both campuses will offer customers a total of 111MW of IT capacity in the Frankfurt region.

“Vantage continues to develop state-of-the-art data centre campuses in the most vital locations across EMEA to support some of the world’s leading technology companies,” said Antoine Boniface, president, EMEA at Vantage Data Centers.

“The speed and scale of our deliveries is unprecedented in our company’s history, as is our commitment to sustainable development. It’s truly a remarkable time in the data centre industry to be on the frontlines of the digital infrastructure revolution.”

Frankfurt II marks Vantage’s ninth campus in EMEA, six of which are now operational (Berlin I, Cardiff, Frankfurt I, Johannesburg, Warsaw and Zurich).
