• data_centre_market_overview

  Dated overview of a European data-centre market: how many data-centre projects of 5 MW or more our pipeline tracker lists and how many are permitted or being built, who develops the most of them, whether new grid connections are paused, rationed or conditional in that country, the grid carbon intensity and power price this hour, and how many data-centre rules apply. Use for questions like "data centres in Germany", "Frankfurt data centre market", "who is building data centres in Spain". Metros: London, Frankfurt, Paris, Amsterdam, Dublin, Milan, Madrid. Countries: United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Finland, Netherlands, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, Greece, Poland, Denmark, Portugal, Belgium, Switzerland, Czechia, Croatia, Estonia, Romania, Austria, Lithuania, Hungary, Latvia.

• grid_connection_status

  Where in Europe new grid connections for data centres are paused, rationed, conditional or congested, by country, with the measure's name, what it applies to and when it started. Without a country: the whole ranking. Use for questions like "where can I still connect a data centre to the grid in Europe", "is Ireland's grid moratorium still in force".

• data_centre_rules

  The national and EU rules for building and running a data centre in one European country (energy efficiency reporting, waste heat, permitting, grid), each with its status, who it applies to and the next date that matters, plus upcoming deadlines. Countries: Germany, France, Ireland, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Poland, United Kingdom, Belgium, Czechia, Portugal, Switzerland, Norway, Greece, Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Romania.

• grid_carbon_and_price_now

  This hour's grid carbon intensity (gCO2/kWh), renewable share and day-ahead power price for a European market, the cleanest window in the next hours and its rank among 15 markets. Without a market: all markets ranked cleanest first. Markets: Germany, United Kingdom, France, Netherlands, Ireland, Italy (North), Spain, Poland, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Norway (NO2), Sweden (SE3), Denmark (DK1), Finland.
