Nexspace Begins Construction On New Data Center In Graz, Austria

German data center firm Nexspace has started construction on a new facility in Graz, Austria. The project will double Nexspace’s capacity in Graz, adding around 600 sqm (6,460 sq ft) of IT space and 2.2MW of capacity.

“With today's groundbreaking ceremony, we are starting the construction of our new data center and thus a project that is planned far beyond the next few years,” Nexspace CEO Christian Zipp said on Linkein. “Because we are not simply building additional data center space. We are creating infrastructure for a digital world in which data, AI and powerful IT are increasingly determining how companies can work, research and grow.”

The four-story facility will span 3,000 sqm (32,290 sq ft) and is expected to go live around September 2027. Founded in 2023 and owned by InfraRed Capital Partners, Nexspace focuses on developing smaller edge data centers across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. Its first facility, a 2MW data center in Heidelberg, launched in 2023. Nexspace entered Graz in 2024 by acquiring a 3.6MW facility from COOLtec. The company is also planning a data center at Stuttgart’s Sternhöhe campus, though details remain limited.
