Echelon Iberdrola Digital Infra
A new model for energy-secure,
large-scale data centre development
Echelon Iberdrola Digital Infra is a strategic joint venture between Echelon Data Centres and Iberdrola, Europe’s largest utility. The partnership directly addresses the data centre sector’s most critical constraints – land, grid power availability and delivery certainty –through a fully-aligned development model.
Iberdrola secures power-ready sites and provides continuous renewable energy supply, while Echelon leads campus design, delivery, commercialisation and operations –ensuring execution discipline across the full project lifecycle.
By integrating power strategy, site development and delivery under a single aligned platform, Echelon’s joint venture approach givesthe required certainty for faster, more confident investment decisions and scalable long-term capacity deployment.
