Opened in 2024, in the Green Energy Park in Zellik, northwest Brussels, the striking-looking nine-storey Penta BRU01 (formerly Nexus) data center was designed with the collaboration of anchor tenants the Vrije Universiteit Brussels (Free University of Brussels) and the Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussels (Brussels University Hospital).
With 7.2 MW of IT load based on a 12.5 MVA renewable power feed, the 10,000 sqm data center offers medium, high and extreme power-density modules, and will house the VSC Flemish Supercomputer. It is also one of the most sustainable data centers in Europe, with 100% renewable power, optimized PUE design, a photovoltaic facade generating up to 0.5 MW, rainwater recuperation for cooling, and 100% heat re-use based on a thermal smart grid.
Uniquely, the carbon-neutral facility has been ‘triple-certified’; it has obtained BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating for circular and sustainable building practices; EDGE Advanced status; and Uptime Institute Tier III certification for Design and Operational Sustainability. The site also offers plenty of room for future development.
