NTT Gains Council Approval for 482MW Data Center Campus in Nierstein, Germany

NTT is moving forward with a large data center campus outside Frankfurt, Germany.

“Great news for our FRA6 data center campus in Nierstein: The city council has unanimously approved the development plan, an important milestone for our project,” the company said on LinkedIn over the weekend. “This follows the equally unanimous approval of the land-use plan by the Rhein-Selz municipal association.”

The development plan will become legally binding after its official publication, expected in the first quarter of 2026. Reports suggest ground could break on the site in early 2027 for a 2029 launch date. Around nine buildings are reportedly planned, and NTT said the 482MW campus will be “one of the largest in Europe.”
