Veolia Unveils A Next-Generation Integrated Offering to Revolutionize the Future of the Data-Center Industry
Veolia launched in London a new global offer for data centers, Data Center Resource 360, designed to address the critical environmental and operational challenges facing the rapidly expanding digital infrastructure sector, while supporting the resilience of communities and responding to their critical resource needs. The offer places a particular emphasis on their integration and acceptability into local ecosystems, at a time when environmental security is emerging as a key strategic priority. The global data center market is experiencing exponential growth, with facility numbers and overall capacity projected to expand by approximately 11% per year through 2034. Yet nearly half of all planned or under-construction facilities could face potential permitting delays or restrictions, driven primarily by concerns around water consumption, local resource constraints, and energy consumption. In this context, the market for integrated data center solutions addressing these challenges is growing rapidly and is currently valued globally at around USD 5,000 million per year by 2030. Already active alongside the 10 leading global data center operators worldwide on over 100 facilities, Veolia has a unique understanding of their needs, combined with strong international expertise and a portfolio of proprietary technologies in water, waste and energy management, enabling it to design the most relevant offering on the market. Veolia’s next-generation, all-in-one offering is designed to be rapidly deployed to moving data centers into carbon-neutral, water-positive, circular hubs (with up to +20% energy reuse, -75% water footprint, and up to 95% waste recycling and reuse), powering resilient, high-performance, and truly sustainable future digital infrastructure, while contributing to the long-term environmental security and resilience of territories. The global data center market is experiencing exponential growth, with facility numbers and overall capacity projected to expand by approximately 11% per year through 2034. The global data center market is currently valued globally at around USD 5,000 million per year by 2030. Veolia’s strategic and priority growth markets include the United States and Europe (Germany, United Kingdom, France), where data center development is accelerating and environmental expectations are the highest in the world. Veolia can significantly reduce the carbon footprint through waste heat recovery projects that transform data centers into heat providers for communities and industries by supplying local decarbonizing energy, thereby contributing to local energy resilience and reducing dependence on external resources. Electrical flexibility and backup services further maximize grid efficiency and integrate green power networks, benefiting the wider energy ecosystem. +20% energy reuse efficiency (anticipating future European legislation) for heat providers serving local communities. Veolia delivers comprehensive water management (from audits and advisory to advanced treatment), full-cycle performance, and replenishment projects. That helps reduce water risks and costs while strengthening resilience, protecting critical water resources and supporting local ecosystems. Veolia offers circular waste management with integrated solutions for all streams: turning waste into resources, reducing costs, and enhancing sustainability while contributing to resource security and circular economy models at local level. With Hubgrade, Veolia’s digital platform integrating AI and predictive analytics, all operations (water consumption, energy performance, and critical maintenance) are monitored and optimized in real time, ensuring continuous performance, enhanced resilience, greater anticipation of critical risks and stakeholder trust.
