Docklands Data Centre Campus - update
The Royal Docks is set to house one of London's largest data centre campuses, meeting the growing demand for AI in the city. The site, formerly a paint factory next to Tate & Lyle that has been vacant for decades, will now be redeveloped as a modern data centre campus.
Ada Infrastructure received approval from Newham Council in December 2024 for a campus comprising three data centre buildings, a Multi-Function Building, and associated infrastructure. The site will create a number of skills, training and job opportunities for local residents as well as community spaces and an enhanced public realm around the site, including a new pocket park and pathways for pedestrians and cyclists.
The development will also use renewable energy sources, exhibit indigenous vegetation and will be the first data centre campus in England to achieve both BREEAM and WELL certifications (both industry standards after certification is complete). The campus will be designed to reduce carbon emissions and improve sustainability, while enhancing comfort, health and wellness for future employees.
