Nigeria Data Center Cooling Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Nigeria Data Center Cooling Market Analysis

The Nigeria Data Center Cooling Market size is estimated at USD 0.03 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 0.10 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 25% during the forecast period (2024-2030).

• Nigeria is swiftly solidifying its position as a key data center hub in Africa. This momentum is fueled by the nation's dedication to digital transformation and its embrace of cutting-edge technologies like IoT, big data, AI, ML, and enhanced network connectivity.
• Under Construction IT Load Capacity: The upcoming IT load capacity of the Nigeria data center market is expected to reach more than 480 MW by 2030.
• Under Construction Raised Floor Space: The country's construction of raised floor area is expected to increase above 1.7 million sq. ft by 2030.
• Planned Racks: The country's total number of racks to be installed is expected to reach above 86K units by 2030. Johannesburg is expected to house the maximum number of racks by 2030.
• Planned Submarine Cables: Many are under construction. 2Africa, which stretches over 45,000 kilometers and has landing points in Lagos, Nigeria, was estimated to start service in 2023.
• New data centers across the country are focusing on implementing state-of-the-art monitoring systems to mitigate the risks associated with extreme weather events. Many would use the latest, more energy-efficient cooling technologies, such as redundant cooling systems, smart monitoring technologies, and backup power generators, to ensure consistency of temperature in the event of power interruptions. Another example is direct liquid cooling, which uses a higher thermal transfer of water to a more efficient cooling device.
• The average winter temperature is between 32°C (90°F) and 34°C (94 °F). The average summer temperature is between 42.9°C (109.22 °F) to over 44.5 °C (112.1°F). Depending upon climatic conditions, the DC cooling is done in the DC facilities.

Nigeria Data Center Cooling Industry Segmentation

Data center cooling is a set of techniques and technologies to maintain optimal operating temperatures in data center environments. This is important because data centers house many computer servers and network equipment that generate heat during operation. Efficient cooling systems are used to dissipate this heat and prevent equipment from overheating, ensuring continued reliable operation of the data center. Various methods, such as air conditioning, liquid cooling, and hot/cold aisle containment, are commonly used to control temperature and humidity in data centers.

The Nigerian Data Center cooling market study comprises by Technology (Air-based cooling (Chiller and Economizer, CRAH, Cooling Towers and Others), Liquid-based cooling (Immersion Cooling, Direct-to-chip Cooling, Rear-Door Heat Exchanger)), Type of Data Center (Hyperscaler, Enterprise and Colocation) , by End-User Industry (IT & Telecom, Retail & Consumer Goods, Healthcare, Media & Entertainment, Federal & Institutional agencies, and Other end-users).
