Data Center Construction Market – Segmentation
- Currently, the US, Germany, Sweden, Australia, Canada, India, and France are witnessing the highest development and expansion of small data center projects, which fall under the capacity of less than 5 MW. Europe witnessed the development of multiple small projects, accounting for over USD 2 billion in investments.
- In terms of electrical infrastructure, several data center facilities in North America have adopted 2N redundant UPS systems. Hyperscale operators are deploying end-of-rack UPS solutions supporting up to six racks. Generators are still being deployed in N+1 redundant configuration.
- A majority of facilities in North America are cooled via free cooling solutions. Several facilities built-in 2020 adopted free cooling techniques to reduce the energy cost. Economizers, evaporative and adiabatic coolers, and free cooling chillers are adopted among data centers during summers and winters.
