The Spanish energy leader Forestalia is significantly expanding its portfolio by entering the high-tech infrastructure sector with the launch of the Búfalo Project. This ambitious initiative involves a total investment of €12 billion to develop a massive network of three state-of-the-art data centers in the Aragon region of Spain.
Located in the municipality of Botorrita, just south of Zaragoza city, DCM Dédalo is a high-capacity unit designed to take advantage of the region's existing high-voltage infrastructure. This facility represents a direct investment of €3.3 billion and is strategically positioned at the "María 220 kV" electrical node. A key feature of DCM Dédalo is its high degree of energy autonomy; it is integrated with 81 MW of dedicated on-site wind and solar generation developed by Forestalia. This "behind-the-meter" setup allows the data center to operate with a 50/50 power split, using green energy generated on-site to reduce its reliance on the national grid while maintaining a massive computing footprint.
