  • Cloud Services Are Growing at a Great Pace
  • Big Data and IoT Services Are Widely Adopted, Driving Data Center Investments
  • Enhanced Connectivity Through Submarine Cables Fuels Demand, Driving Growth in Data Center Infrastructure

The UK data center market has around 200 data center facilities, while around 40 are currently in the pipeline. The influx of data infrastructure investments is fueled by top colocation operators such as VIRTUS Data Centres, Equinix, Digital Realty, and Ark Data Centres. The UK's strategic significance in global connectivity is underlined by its 56 submarine cables linking key regions such as the US, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. Acquisitions such as nLighten's acquisition of Proximity Data Centres highlight the dynamic nature of the market. Meanwhile, the data center expansion initiatives by Pulsant, Telehouse, and other players reflect the industry's commitment to meeting the growing demand.

The UK data center market is experiencing a robust surge in investments, marked by expansion initiatives, acquisitions, and new projects, thereby showcasing the dynamic nature of the market. The market will experience cumulative core and shell investments of over $10 billion during the forecast period.

Key Highlights

  • The UK data center market is experiencing significant growth due to factors such as the widespread adoption of digital platforms, the expansion of 5G network connectivity, an increase in internet users, government and digital economy initiatives, as well as the integration of advanced technologies, including IoT, big data, and AI. The UK accounts for approximately 20% of Western Europe's total data center investments.
  • Investments from colocation data center operators including key players such as Equinix, VIRTUS Data Centres, Digital Realty, and Ark Data Centres fuel the growth of the UK data center market.
  • Major cloud service providers, such as AWS, Microsoft, and Google, are actively expanding their data center infrastructure in the UK. Investments and expansion initiatives by these providers align with the growing demand for cloud services.
  • Counties including Manchester, Berkshire, and West Sussex are witnessing investments in data center facilities. Sustainability efforts such as the use of hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) by Datum Datacentres are prevalent across counties.
  • The UK government has launched initiatives such as the Wireless Infrastructure Strategy, which is aiming to increase wireless network connectivity by 2030. The Digital Strategy, launched by the UK government, outlines a holistic approach to digital policy across critical domains, emphasizing the country's commitment to digital technology.

Investment Opportunities

  • In May 2023, Kao Data unveiled its plans to construct a 40 MW data center in Manchester's Kenwood Point for a projected investment of $440 million; the facility is set to go live in late 2025. The strategic move into Manchester aligns with Kao Data's commitment to advancing the region's computing capabilities and supporting the aspirations of the UK government.
  • In April 2023, Equinix planned to develop a 30 MW data center facility in Slough Trading Estate in Berkshire, outside London. It is a five-story building with two data halls on each floor.
  • In April 2023, Vantage Data Centers announced the development of a second data center campus, LHR2, in West London, with an investment of around $310 million. The LHR1 data center campus, with a total area of 40,000 square feet and two 24 MW multi-story data centers, is expected to be online by 2024.
  • In February 2023, Colt Data Centre Services started the construction of its hyperscale data center facility in its Hayes, West London, campus; the power capacity of the facility is around 50 MW.
