The growing demand for digital services, artificial intelligence and cloud computing continues to drive the expansion of the data centre sector across Europe. In this context, Spain is gaining relevance as a destination for new digital infrastructure developments, supported by improved connectivity, strategic locations and an increasingly favorable environment for sustainable infrastructure projects.

One of the key factors shaping the sector’s growth in the coming years will be the ability of markets to provide access to power, land availability and efficient development processes. These conditions are helping new markets gain prominence within Europe’s data centre landscape, creating additional opportunities for future investment and development.

In this context, Madrid has established itself as one of the leading data centre markets in the EMEA region. The city currently has a capacity of 538 MW, with forecasts suggesting it could exceed 1,100 MW by 2030, highlighting the strong momentum behind its digital infrastructure ecosystem.

The sector’s expansion is also extending to other Spanish markets. Zaragoza continues to attract interest for new developments thanks to its operational advantages and cost competitiveness, while Barcelona maintains a strategic position within international connectivity networks due to its location in the Mediterranean.

Spain’s data centre market is also benefiting from an increasingly favorable environment for sustainable infrastructure deployment. With operational capacity growing by approximately 9% annually and the overall market expanding by around 16%, Spain continues to strengthen its position as one of Europe’s most attractive growth markets for digital infrastructure.
