New York, Nov. 13, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Data Center Colocation Market in EMEA - Industry Outlook and Forecast 2020-2025" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p05587796/?utm_source=GNW


The EMEA data center market is witnessing a significant boost in investment because of the implementation of the GDPR in Europe and the increase in demand for colocation services due to the high adoption of internet-based services among businesses in the Middle East and Africa region.

Colocation service providers will continue to build both retail and wholesale colocation spaces in the region with higher connectivity and availability of power sources.

Colocation providers continue to drive market revenue during the forecast period. The market will also witness the entry of new providers, especially in Western Europe. Also, new colocation service providers are likely to enter in the Middle East and African countries to capture new markets. The market witnessed significant M&A activities in 2019 due to the rise in demand in several businesses, leading data center service providers to sign M&A contracts to expand their portfolio.

The following factors are likely to contribute to the growth of the EMEA data center colocation market during the forecast period:
• Increased Popularity of District Heating Concept
• High Adoption of Renewable Energy among Service Providers
• M&A Activities improving Colocation Market Share
• Increased Demand for Edge Data Centers

EMEA Data Center Colocation Market Segmentation
This research report includes a detailed segmentation by electrical infrastructure, mechanical infrastructure, general construction, service type, and geography. The UK, Germany, the Netherlands, France, and Ireland are major contributors to the power infrastructure revenue. Several facilities have adopted flexible designs in Western Europe to facilitate dual power feeds, 2N redundant UPS and PDU systems, and N+1 generator. Colocation investments are likely to push the demand for 500–1,000 kVA UPS systems and >1,000 kVA systems. Generators with >2 MW power capacity are prefeed in the region. Most facilities in the Nordic region are powered through renewable energy with grid stability of over 95%. This reduces the dependence on generator systems, leading to the installation of 2N UPS systems. The use of basic PDUs is comparatively lower, with higher procurement of metered and monitored PDU systems.

Favorable climatic conditions and the availability of renewable resources such as wind energy in the UK have helped data center operators to benefit from free cooling. Most of the data centers built in Germany are adopting free cooling to cool the facility. A major vendor uses redundant water and air-cooled system supported by free cooling with N+1 redundancy and CRAH units with N+1 configuration. Most of the data centers in the Nordic region are cooled through free cooling techniques. The Nordic data center market facilitates free cooling for over 8,400 hours in a year. The use of free cooling systems will continue to add revenue to the market during the forecast period. All the countries in the Central and Eastern European regions support free cooling of the data center for over 6,000 hours a year. Many data centers have been equipped with in-direct evaporative/adiabatic coolers. Few facilities have also adopted water/glycol-based cooling systems along with highly efficient DX-based CRAC systems to cool the facility.

Western Europe is the most active market across the European region for data center construction. Many facilities are being designed and built to cover an area of over 100,000 square feet. The increase in demand for data centers has been a revenue opportunity for multiple contractors and sub-contractors in the market. However, the major challenge for several contractors in the region is the non-availability of skilled professionals to manage multiple data center projects.

Retail colocation services in EMEA are expected to reach over $9.5 billion by 2025. The market is likely to be driven by the increased demand for colocation services from organizations in developing countries. Also, enterprises with the need for geographically distributed capacity and limited budgets are likely to opt for retail colocation. Several existing retail colocation service users are expected to opt for wholesale colocation capacities during the forecast period. The retail colocation market is also likely to face a strong challenge from cloud-based hosting services, especially in the Middle East and Africa region.
