Valencia, 05 February 2026 – NxN Data Centers has begun construction of its first data center in Valencia, located in the Vara de Quart industrial area. The project represents an investment of €60 million and will create 100 direct jobs, mainly linked to technical, operational, commercial, and corporate profiles.
Looking ahead, the new data center is expected to become operational in the first half of 2027 and will also host the group’s headquarters, positioning Valencia as the operational base for the company’s growth. The initiative will contribute to the creation of skilled employment associated with digitalisation and advanced data services.
The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by institutional representatives and members of the technology ecosystem. Including Paula Llobet, Councillor for Tourism, Innovation and Investment Promotion at Valencia City Council, as well as regional authorities responsible for telecommunications and digital transformation.
A project with growth ambitions
The facility will cover approximately 6,500 square metres and have an initial capacity of 5 MW. It will be primarily aimed at large companies and public administrations, both national and international. According to NxN Data Centers’ Executive Chairman, Javier Salas, the company is already in advanced discussions with potential clients interested in locating their operations at the facility.
The Valencia site will be the first in a network of up to ten data centers that NxN plans to develop across Spain and Portugal over the next five years, with an estimated total investment of €500 million. Cities under consideration include Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and Lisbon, in addition to Valencia, where this expansion plan begins.
Energy efficiency and sustainability
The project has been designed in accordance with BREEAM Excellent sustainable construction standards. Featuring zero water consumption and the exclusive use of energy from renewable sources. The company has highlighted the prior information and dialogue process carried out with local neighbourhood associations to explain the technical characteristics of the facility and its limited impact on the urban environment.
NxN Data Centers is backed by InfraRed Capital Partners, an international infrastructure manager that holds a 70% stake in the company. Alongside the founding partners and other investors. This support reinforces Valencia’s attractiveness for large-scale technology projects and strengthens its position as a destination for digital economy investments.
