About the Dutch Data Centre Market

New rules, announced in late 2023 by the Municipality of Amsterdam, will restrict the data centres limit in the Amsterdam municipality which is part of the larger Metropole Region. From ‘now on’, "new data centers may only be built on business parks in Amsterdam and Haarlemmermeer, both in the Amsterdam Metropolitan Area (MRA) and in Hollands Kroon".

There are nearly 150 third-party Data Centre facilities in the Dutch market run by some 50 Data Centre Companies, with a forecast of 500k m2 of Data Centre raised floor and just under 800 MW of Data Centre Customer Power (DCCP) at the end of 2023. 

The Dutch market has seen a wave of Data Centre consolidation, as well as new data centre announcements. For example, Global Switch which in 2023 announced the first stage of its Amsterdam East facility and Switch Data Center announced its Amsterdam (AMS6) facility, a 25,000 m2 with 45/60 MW of power, in the Schiphol cluster. 

Amsterdam has become one of the largest Data Centre city clusters in Europe – According to datacentrepricing’s forecasts, the Amsterdam region alone accounts for close to sixty per cent of all Dutch Data Centre space. The Dutch Data Centre facilities are located in sixty different cities.
