QTS EEM Netherlands–Eemshaven Data Center
- Planned critical IT
- 20 MW
- Updated
- Oct 28, 2026
QTS’s current Eemshaven page identifies DC1 as fully operational, DC2 as being delivered in phases, and DC3 as under construction. The 200 MW campus figure is planned gross power delivered in phases, not operating IT capacity. QTS Eemshaven remains an operating Netherlands facility and is still in QTS’s portfolio following the 2023 acquisition of local operator Zentrys. The legacy 20 MW boundary is kept separate from later hyperscale expansion: Groningen province issued a current permit at Kwelderweg, but that decision does not prove the existing building’s operating IT changed. The 2019 $44 million purchase price covered both Eemshaven and Groningen and is not allocated to this profile. Customer utilization, private contract terms and unreported project financing remain outside the verified public record.

A missing figure does not mean zero. Planned, utility and generation figures are not operating IT capacity.
