Collaborating Since 2011
We have been building data centers off-site in partnership with Ark Data Centres for over a decade. Work began on the first 1.5MW data center in August 2011 at Ark’s Spring Park campus, with our first partnership agreement signed in September 2013. Our latest partnership agreement extends to 2028, ensuring that Ark’s clients will continue to be offered the world’s most sustainable data centers for many years to come.
87MW Delivered So Far
Together, we have built 110 data halls, totaling 87MW and 50,210 m2 and during this time, our technology and construction approach have evolved considerably, enabling us to provide some of the most socially responsible data centers in the world. Not only do Bladeroom Data Centers provide Ark with the most energy efficient data centers in the world, every data hall and energy center is designed and built in the UK using the most advanced and sustainable off-site construction methods.

“We have worked in exclusive partnership with Ark for ten years, forming an extremely strong bond along the way. We are very like-minded businesses with the same agenda – to constantly develop a better solution for clients, not just in terms of sustainability, but a premium quality product. The world has an enormous reliance on data centers by the way people and businesses move and operate, with that trend ever growing. Extending our exclusive partnership signifies our joint commitment to a solution, creating a more sustainable digital future by providing the highest quality and most sustainable data centers available. I am immensely proud of what we have achieved together and look forward with anticipation to our upcoming projects.”

“Our BladeRoom relationship epitomizes the dovetailed engagement that Ark enjoys with key alliance partners.

This approach enables us to rapidly assemble and deliver quality assured, pre-tested products complete with electronic security, monitoring, bus-bar electrical distribution, clean earth, fire suppression and cable containment, ready for racks to roll in for a ‘plug and play’ fit-out. In short, we deliver fully integrated data centers with the lowest carbon emissions more efficiently than any of our competitors while simultaneously reducing build time and minimizing waste.”

The Climate neutral data center pact
In 2021, Ark Data Centres joined the Climate Neutral Data Center Pact. This forward-thinking initiative heralds a commitment from major operators in the European data center market to make data centers climate neutral by 2030, supporting the ‘European Green Deal’ goal of making Europe climate neutral by 2050. They believe that by acting together, the data center industry can have a real and significant impact in the fight against climate change.
