Google Dublin I Data Center
Grange Castle Business Park, Dublin, D22 A259, IE
Outside air does the cooling at Google's Dublin data centre, pulled through louvered walls that carry a painted mural. The site is in Profile Park at Clondalkin, Dublin 22, where Google bought land and an existing building in 2011 and opened its first Irish data centre in 2012; a second Dublin building was announced in 2014. Development around it has become contested - South Dublin County Council refused permission for a gas-fired data centre in the same park, and councillors moved in 2021 to bar new ones there for six years.
