- After the acquisition, the company has a total capacity of 26 MW IT Power in Spain
- Telefónica INFRA becomes a shareholder in Nabiax
Nabiax leads the Spanish Data Center Market after acquiring 6 MW IT Power, divided in three infrastructures: two in Madrid (completing Julián Camarillo Data Center campus with modules 1 and 2) and another in Terrassa.
Thus, the company owned by Asterion Industrial Partners and participated by Telefónica INFRA after this acquisition, has a relevant increase in its total IT Power capacity, which can overcome 120 MW only in Spain.
Nabiax’s expansion in 2021
This acquisition is part of the company’s strategic plan, which, after two successful years of operation, will finish the first expansion in Alcalá Data Center Campus, reaching 100 MW of IT Power in the medium term. At the same time, the company started a 2 MW growth in Julián Camarillo Data Center campus (module 3); another of 1 MW in Paine Data Center (Chile). Nabiax is also starting the process for a 2 MW expansion in Brazil, adding to the 7 MW already built. In all, this means a 67% growth in the total IT Power since Nabiax’s start of operations in July 2019.
Emilio Díaz, CEO at Nabiax, explained: “This transaction is important for two reasons: first, to have a partner of the relevance of Telefónica as a shareholder, which allows us to strengthen our relationship as partners in an environment of transformation challenges worldwide, such as Edge computing. Second, it consolidates us as the leader in the Spanish market, in which we will have very relevant growth in the upcoming years”.
Regarding Latin America, where Nabiax will acquire two new Data Centers in Chile – subject to closing the operation at the start of 2022 – Nabiax positions itself as a top of the class player in the region, having an 11-infrastructure network which provide services to some of the most relevant Cloud providers in the world.
“The new capacity acquired, and the investment committed towards the future assure the development of advanced Data Center infrastructures, which are a key element for the economic recovery in all the activities related to digital transformation. All our strategy is based in a well-defined ESG policy, oriented towards environmental sustainability and social commitment with the ecosystem we interact with”, stated Emilio Díaz.
