Glattfelden: New data center being built on two hectares
HRS Real Estate is building a second campus in the Zurich region for the US data center specialist Vantage Datacenters.
The US company Vantage Datacenters already operates a large data center in Winterthur and is now working on a second location in the Zurich region. The general contractor for the construction of the "VDC ZRH2" is HRS. According to the company, part of the complex will be put into operation in the first quarter of 2024. The topping-out ceremony took place recently.
The campus is being built on a total area of 21,000 square meters. According to a press release, Vantage's investment amounts to CHF 370 million. Air heat pumps and water heat pumps will ensure sustainable energy consumption and the building will have a wooden façade. "ZRH2" will supply a nearby hotel and seminar center with waste heat.
The location is Spinnerei-Lettenstrasse. The Hotel Riverside is located in the immediate vicinity. (aw)
