Empowering Data Centers at Industrial Scale
In a time defined by technological advancements such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and autonomous driving, the demand for data centers is escalating at an unprecedented rate. The market for data centers is expanding by 20% annually, necessitating both the construction of new facilities and the upgrading of existing ones to meet evolving requirements.
Data centers face numerous challenges, including securing reliable power supply, adhering to environmental regulations, and optimizing energy use. Bilfinger’s solutions are designed to overcome these obstacles, offering uninterrupted power supply, advanced cooling systems, and waste heat utilization strategies.
Bilfinger provides comprehensive solutions that ensure data centers at industrial scale (40+ MW) operate with maximum efficiency, sustainability, and regulatory compliance. Furthermore, they support the integration of sustainable energy sources to reduce carbon footprints.
Comprehensive Solutions for a Rising Demand
Bilfinger offers its expertise across two dimensions: First, along the entire energy sector value chain – from power generation to its usage in industrial contexts and municipalities. Our comprehensive approach considers the full energy flow. Our services include the installation of heat pumps, connection to heat storage, and fabrication and installation of pipelines, ensuring compliance with the EU's Energy Efficiency Directive (EED).
The second dimension is the lifecycle of data centers. Bilfinger’s lifecycle approach addresses every phase from initial project development and engineering to installation, maintenance, upgrades, and eventual dismantling. We guide customers through site selection, ensuring optimal power supply availability and energy cycle integration. Our strong network with local authorities enable us to navigate complex regulatory landscapes.
