The Odense data centre facility is planned to be the most advanced and energy efficient data centre in the world.
THE PROJECT
The Odense data centre facility is planned to be the most advanced and energy efficient data centre in the world. Phase 1 and 2 of the buildings were completed in 2020, and each building for this section accommodated four data halls of approximately 4,100m² and 8MVA power supply, with an office block of circa 3,500m2.
Site infrastructure included access and internal roads, car parking, entrance security lodge and extensive landscaping. The project used direct air cooling also included a heat pump facility, which allowed for the recycling of 100,000MWh of energy per year to be recovered from the servers and distributed into the local district heating system.
PHD PROVIDED
The build started in July 2017, with PHD erecting the first scaffold on site. At the height of construction, PHD had 320 tagged scaffolds and four hoists on Phase 1 & 2. PHD also provided mast climbers, scaffold stairs, temporary roofs, and weather screens for all trades to allow work to advance on the programme.
Weather conditions proved an impediment to progress and PHD introduced their bespoke modular aluminium screens and mobile temporary roofs to overcome the challenge. The aluminium screens and temporary roof allowed work to progress and make further weather obstructions obsolete.
