European renewable energy developer WBS Power has established a joint venture with Prime Capital to construct a 500MW hyperscale data center at a former military airfield in Brandenburg, Germany.
The project includes a 500MW/2,000MWh BESS and up to 150MW of solar, with construction slated to begin in late 2026 or early 2027. The project's total cost has been estimated at €500 million ($583.2m).
“Project Jupiter demonstrates our commitment to innovation and scale. By integrating Germany’s largest co-located BESS and solar PV project with a hyperscale data center, we are creating a unique platform that supports both the energy transition and digital transformation. This project is a key milestone in our strategy to deliver next-generation infrastructure that combines renewable energy with digital capacity, reinforcing our leadership in sustainable development,” said Maciej Marcjanik, CEO of WBS Power Group.
