The 210 MW 2,290,000 sqft facility comprises three 70 MW data centre buildings in addition to a community multi-purpose facility. It will be Ada’s flagship development in the UK.

The campus will provide significant public realm improvements to benefit those who live, work and study in the local area. it will create an exemplar of a vibrant and more sustainable development with a strong sense of community and a diverse range of urban characteristics, playing a vital part in the delivery of the wider strategic regeneration of the local area.

The overall development is a large campus, including not only the flagship data centre projects, but multiple other smaller buildings, such as the multi-functional community building which will create an enhanced urban edge between the campus and the road frontage, as well as providing flexible space, and job opportunities for the community. The proposals will also enhance access to public space and the River Thames.

Our team of sustainability experts ran a series of in-depth workshops with the project team and the client to set new standards to achieve significant reductions in both embodied and operational carbon. Materials-wise these workshops considered timber, EAF Steel and cement replacement. The WELL Building Standard is also being explored.

Current project targets include Net Zero Operational Carbon, over 95% waste diversion from landfill and over 35% regulated operational energy reduction.
