Development continues across the core FLAP-D markets in ever-larger phases as companies continue their move off-premises and operators expand their data centres accordingly. Many of the hyperscale services have chosen to launch new products and expansions in these areas first, reflecting continued and potential demand over the next several years.
Frankfurt
Strong pre-leasing has stimulated new builds throughout Frankfurt, with the largest global operators expanding across multiple sites to meet client interest. Frankfurt remains the largest market in Germany despite the growth of secondary markets in Berlin, Hamburg, and Munich.

London
Neither Brexit nor the pandemic has harmed the London data centre market, with over 170 MW under construction and another 200 MW in serious planning. Key sites in Slough and the Docklands remain difficult to come by, and major cloud services aim for roll-outs in London first.
