Europe Data Center Power Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Europe Data Center Power Market Analysis

The Europe Data Center Power Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.4% during the forecast period. Growth in the number of data centers in the region is leading to an increase in electricity demand and the emergence of a new electricity-intensive industry. In addition, other key factors driving the Europe data center power market are the increased number of IT infrastructure components, increasing digitalization, and an increasing number of cloud service providers.

• The spread of COVID-19 negatively affected significant regional data center operations. Some countries, such as the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, France, and Ireland, were impacted most, as many governments halted their construction work in the year's first half. For instance, the government of France stopped all non-essential construction projects to avoid spreading the virus.
• Post-pandemic, the region has been witnessing strong growth with an increase in efficient power infrastructure spending, shifting old, outdated data centers to modern facilities. According to the EU, by 2030, data centers in Europe are expected to account for 3.2% of electricity demand within the EU, an 18.5% jump from 2018. In coming years, the market is expected to generate 30 times more data with an increased number of servers, leading to higher energy consumption.
• Many European policymakers have identified data centers as one of the fastest-rising sectors regarding energy consumption. European policymakers have formulated an EU code of conduct to inform and encourage data center operators to reduce energy consumption cost-effectively without impacting the critical functionality of data centers. Such factors are further expected to drive market growth.
• Further, increasing renewable energy procurement is analyzed to drive Europe's data center power market. To ensure data centers are an essential part of the sustainable future of Europe, data center market vendors and trade associations have agreed to make data centers climate-neutral by 2030. European cloud and data center operators, including Interxion (Digital Realty), OVHcloud, Equinix, Scaleway Datacenter, Aruba, and other industry associations, have signed the Climate Neutral Data Center Pact.
• However, the current spike in energy prices and disruptions to the energy supply in European countries is raising challenges for data center operators, which are simultaneously experiencing a drastic increase in demand for data processing, traffic, and storage since the pandemic. While data center power demand is rapidly increasing, power availability is increasingly lacking. Such factors can limit the growth of the data center power market in the region.
