DAMAC Digital bought powered land at Vicálvaro, in eastern Madrid, on 15 October 2024, taking the plot freehold from ActivumSG Fund VII. The scheme is drawn at 22,414 m2 of floor area for 40 MW of capacity, with DAMAC Group putting total investment above EUR 400 million. Engineering consultancy IDP was engaged for testfit work, technical due diligence and a study of fibre and energy availability - pre-construction scope, which places the site at design stage rather than in build. Go-live was framed at the time of the land deal as falling within two years. The developer is the data centre arm of Hussain Sajwani's DAMAC Group, which traded as EDGNEX Data Centres by DAMAC until 19 June 2025. Espanix, the Madrid internet exchange, sits about 5 km away, and Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas roughly 10 km.
