With data consumption at an all-time high, the need for data centres to power the digital economy has rapidly increased. The strategic location of Goodman\u2019s properties and its international data centre development experience will see it develop a data centre in Frankfurt on the site of a former newspaper printing plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Christof Prange, Head of Germany at Goodman, said: \u201cGoodman\u2019s focus on strategic infill locations means that we have sites that are attractive for a wide range of uses including data centres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMany of our sites are located close to consumers and have access to power \u2013 important ingredients in being able to serve the data needs of the growing digital economy. Moving into data centre development in Germany was a natural evolution for us to complement our wider portfolio of logistics facilities, light industrial parks and multi-level developments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Goodman recently purchased the 4.5-hectare brownfield plot in Neu-Isenburg, south of Frankfurt, and is set to transform it into a high-quality powered shell data centre. Goodman FRA II Data Centre will offer a power capacity of up to 100 MVA, ready for customers to install their technical fit-out.
Frankfurt is among Europe\u2019s top data centre markets alongside London, Amsterdam, Paris and Dublin. In close proximity to Frankfurt, Neu-Isenburg\u2019s strategic location benefits from a low risk profile and strong existing infrastructure and connectivity, with more than six on-net fibre providers nearby and within nine km of DE-CIX and Hanauer Landstra\u00dfe in Frankfurt.
Matthieu Wieczorek, Data Centre Development Lead at Goodman, said: \u201cDemand for server capacity, cloud space and data storage infrastructure in Germany and Continental Europe continues to rise, yet supply is lagging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGoodman\u2019s FRA II Data Centre will transform a vacant brownfield site into an essential piece of infrastructure serving millions of end-users, supporting the continued growth of Frankfurt\u2019s economy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
