Scaleway DC5, also designated PAR2, is an operating hyperscale data center northwest of Paris. The 16,000-square-meter facility contains 12 private suites and provides more than 20 MW of IT design capacity. Direct free cooling with adiabatic support produced a reported 2024 PUE of 1.16, and the site’s electricity is covered by renewable guarantees of origin.
