Berlin Data Centres | Wustermark Campus

Delivering 300MW of incoming power across two campus locations, the VIRTUS Wustermark Campus is strategically located just 30km from the iconic Brandenburger Tor in Berlin and only 12km from Berlin’s city limits.

Covering more than 350,000 square metres of land, the campus sets a new benchmark in mega scale data centre capacity for cloud and AI in Europe, with an innovative approach to the use of sustainable power, waste heat re-use and technology to position it as one of Germany's and Europe’s largest scale green data centre campuses.

The campus is located in the Berlin Brandenburg data centre region - one of the fastest growing data centre markets in Europe – and is projected to be operational by 2026.

Sustainable Power

The campus is adjacent to some of the largest contiguous onshore wind farms in the country that contribute to its power supply, supporting VIRTUS' journey towards the goal of achieving net zero emissions on all reportable activities by 2030. VIRTUS has a continuing commitment to raising the bar in terms of scale and sustainability across Europe, as it has achieved in the UK. This latest development development includes a strategic collaboration with the grid operator to use renewable energy at a key renewable energy grid supply point. The availability of renewable options and scale of facilities in the Wustermark area also supports VIRTUS’ vision to transition away from any use of diesel fuel.

State-of-the-Art Technology:

At the core of the VIRTUS Wustermark Campus lies a dedication to state-of-the-art technology and innovation to ensure operational excellence and the delivery of scale and flexibility to meet the demands of new Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning workloads. Designed with the distinct purpose of supporting the growing demands of hyperscale, government and enterprise customers, the campus is primed to cater for the ever-expanding server computer density that is required by cloud computing and generative AI applications. VIRTUS continues to invest and innovate so its customers have access to the latest technologies.

Community Collaboration:

As part of the development, VIRTUS will make the waste heat of the campus available to the local municipality and support their ambitious project to deliver a future district heating distribution network for Wustermark. This aims to harmoniously integrate the campus with the local community and contribute positively to the region's infrastructure.
