Data Center Construction Market – Segmentation

Currently, the US, Germany, Sweden, Australia, Canada, India, and France are witnessing the highest development and expansion of small data center projects, which fall under the capacity of less than 5 MW. Europe witnessed the development of multiple small projects, accounting for over USD 2 billion in investments.
In terms of electrical infrastructure, several data center facilities in North America have adopted 2N redundant UPS systems. Hyperscale operators are deploying end-of-rack UPS solutions supporting up to six racks. Generators are still being deployed in N+1 redundant configuration.
A majority of facilities in North America are cooled via free cooling solutions. Several facilities built-in 2020 adopted free cooling techniques to reduce the energy cost. Economizers, evaporative and adiabatic coolers, and free cooling chillers are adopted among data centers during summers and winters.

Data Center Construction Market – Dynamics

The market is now moving toward software-defined support infrastructure in the data center. The concept of Software-Defined Data Center (SDDC) is gaining wide acceptance in the industry to improve the efficiency of IT infrastructure operations in data centers. Multiple software vendors in the power market are partnering with leading power infrastructure providers to improve the efficiency of data center facilities using software-defined practices. Virtual Power Systems is a notable SDDC solutions provider in the market that offers software and hardware modules to improve capacity utilization and availability through end-to-end automation of power infrastructure. With the use of Virtual Power Systems software, data center operators can reduce up to 25% in power costs. In 2020, Huawei launched an AI-powered modular data center and also use the SmartLi UPS with lithium-ion batteries. In addition, NVIDIA launched the "data center in a box," which is implemented with artificial intelligence.

Data Center Construction Market – Geography

Over 50 hyperscale data centers were active in North America in 2020, which operate at a power capacity of over 20 MW. Power consumption, carbon emissions, and increased water usage by data centers are major market challenges. Several innovations that aim to enhance the operational efficiency of the facility, reduce power consumption, and decrease carbon emissions have been witnessed in the market. Multiple hyperscale facilities are being powered by renewable energy sources to overcome issues with power consumption and carbon emissions. The deployment of 5G across the region during the forecast period will result in strong data growth and application workloads, resulting in high-performance computing infrastructure procurement as well as the construction of edge data centers across major states and provinces.
