Pelagos Data Centres this week announced plans to develop a 250MW project on the British territory of Gibraltar. The facility will be constructed in five phases at a 20,000 square meter (215,280 sq ft) site near the Port of Gibraltar.
Konstantin Sokolov, chairman of Pelagos Data Centres, said: “The scale of this project marks a new chapter for Gibraltar and for Europe’s digital capabilities. Just as electricity and the internet transformed society in the past, AI is now emerging as the defining technology of our time with the power to redefine entire industries, economies, and communities. With our new facility, Pelagos Data Centres is laying the foundation for the next era of AI-driven innovation, positioning Gibraltar as a strategic hub and enabling Europe's brightest minds to unlock the full potential of this revolutionary technology."
Chief Minister of Gibraltar, Fabian Picardo, added: “I am delighted that Pelagos Data Centres has decided that Gibraltar is the place to establish their first facility and that the whole community will benefit from their massive investment and its huge economic impact. I look forward to this project becoming a reality as soon as possible.”
