Designing Tomorrow’s Data Centres Today

May 28, 2026

We’ve released a new infographic exploring how Germany’s next generation of data centres is evolving beyond traditional hubs.

As constraints around power availability, grid capacity, and land continue to impact Frankfurt, operators and investors are increasingly looking towards secondary markets such as Berlin, Munich, Düsseldorf and Hamburg for future growth opportunities.

Highlights from the Infographic:

  • Frankfurt power connection timelines can now reach up to 15 years
  • Germany’s pipeline capacity across key regions has grown from under 1 GW in 2020 to nearly 4 GW by 2025
  • AI/HPC rack densities are expected to increase from 10–15 kW in 2010–2015 to 80–120 kW in next-generation AI facilities
  • Hyperscalers continue driving demand in Frankfurt and Berlin, while Munich and Düsseldorf are seeing significant supply growth
  • Sustainability is becoming a core requirement, with renewable energy sourcing and heat reuse integration built into new facilities from day one
  • New AI-ready data centre designs are increasingly modular, scalable and liquid cooling-ready
