Summary

The MRAe Hauts-de-France deliberated opinion adopted on 11 August 2026 names the project by LLE01 SNC for a campus of four data-centre buildings (A, B, C and D, 264 MW IT in total) with a substation, a waste-heat recovery building and 212 emergency generators on about 23 ha of the former Stora Enso paper-mill site at rue de la Papeterie, Brebières, and rue de Brebières, Corbehem, referred to it for the two communes' building-permit applications and the environmental-authorisation application. The project is therefore announced as of 11 August 2026. No building permit, environmental authorisation or physical work is established; the 2030 first-operation and 2036 build-out dates are forecasts. evidence

LLE01 — planned campus of four data-centre buildings (A-D, 264 MW IT) on the former Stora Enso mill site

Announced last observed as of 2026-08-11 · Project announcement

The applicant's non-technical summary places the campus at rue de la Papeterie (Brebières) and rue de Brebières (Corbehem), about 3 km south-east of Douai, on vacant land bounded to the north by those streets and an ID Logistics platform, to the east by vacant industrial land, to the south by the canalised Scarpe and to the west by a planted strip along the RD 307. It states that the project covers seven cadastral parcels, AI 57, AI 59, AI 60, AI 61, AI 62, AI 63 and L 154, with a total area of 229,846 m2, all owned by LLE01 SNC, and that the grid connection is carried by RTE. evidence

Derivation: direct_geometry
Precision scope: Centroid of the seven cadastral parcels named by the applicant (Brebières AI 57, AI 59, AI 60, AI 61, AI 62 and AI 63 and Corbehem L 154; 23.0 ha, about 746 by 391 m) on the former Stora Enso site between rue de la Papeterie and the canalised Scarpe. It locates the campus land, not any of the four buildings.
Horizontal uncertainty: Not reported
The cadastral service publishes no positional accuracy; the point is the centroid of a 23 ha site whose vertices lie up to 395 m away, and the positions of buildings A to D on it are not published in a georeferenced form.
Geometry evidence: 0498ffe9

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
