The Netherlands data center market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 18.49% from 2024 to 2030.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  • The Netherlands held a 2.8% share in the Europe data center market in 2024. The country offers a strategic, low-latency gateway to Europe with around 90% of the Dutch Data Center Association’s member data centers powered by renewable energy. Its strong digital infrastructure, pro-tech policies, and presence of hyperscalers like Google and Microsoft make it a premier destination for data centers.
  • Due to various space regulations and power-related challenges in Amsterdam, the Netherlands data center market has expanded beyond Amsterdam to include cities such as Rotterdam, Zwolle, Groningen, Almere, Hengelo, Eindhoven, and Eemshaven.
  • According to a report by Cushman & Wakefield, the vacancy rate for data center space in the country dropped to 5% in 2025, down from 7% in 2024.
  • The Dutch government is actively pushing the use of Dutch or local European-based tech companies by making exit plans for current systems that depend on U.S. technology.
  • The ongoing expansion of submarine cable infrastructure is playing a transformative role in the Netherlands data center market in 2024. It had ten submarine cables operating in 2024, which include, Amerigo Vespucci, Atlantic Crossing-1 (AC-1), Circe North, COBRAcable, Concerto, Farland North, Iceni, Scylla, Ulysses2, and Zeus.

NETHERLANDS DATA CENTER MARKET VENDOR LANDSCAPE
  • Some of the local and international data center operators present in the Netherlands data center market are Digital Realty, Equinix, EdgeConneX, Global Switch, Google, Interconnect Services, Keppel Data Centres, Microsoft, NorthC, Switch Datacenters, NTT DATA, nLighten, Atlas Edge, CyrusOne, Yondr Group, and others.
  • In response to the growing digital economy and ongoing digitalization in the Netherlands, several new operators are entering the market. A new entrant in the Netherlands data center market is CloudHQ, which is developing an AMS campus that will offer 84 MW of IT capacity.
  • The Netherlands data center market is experiencing very limited hyperscale data center facilities. It has only two major operators, Google and Microsoft. Google is investing USD 643 million to develop a data center facility in Groningen. Google’s investment in Eemshaven-Groningen and Agriport data centers in the Netherlands has created a significant economic impact on the country.
  • Since these hyperscale operators store workloads in their own data center facilities, it may reduce the source of revenue generation for colocation operators.
