Announced
Spain · 1 project · Last reported
Summary
Data center campus planned by ACS with Benbros Energy on about 25.5 hectares of industrial land in La Puebla de Alfindén, Zaragoza province. Announced in June 2025 with EUR 1,254 million for the first phase and 150 MW of grid access at Red Eléctrica's Peñaflor substation; a second phase depends on a further 150 MW the developers have requested. The regional plan describes two data halls of 40 MW and 60 MW of IT load, a new 400/220 kV substation next to Peñaflor and an underground line to the site. The plan won initial approval in December 2025 and was amended in July 2026 to add the power line projects. Urbanisation works were expected from late 2026 or in 2027.

Evidence
Sources are linked, not redistributed; each keeps its own terms. An archived copy is a lookup for the Wayback Machine capture nearest the retrieval date and may be unavailable or differ from what was reviewed. Each hash states what it covers; imported factual records are not publisher-page captures.
