Pure Data Centre — Dublin AI Microgrid
Dublin, Leinster, Ireland
Launched in early 2026, the Pure Data Centre Dublin facility is Europe’s first “islanded” microgrid data center, designed to bypass grid connection delays. The 110 MW campus was specifically built to handle high-density AI workloads, representing a €1 billion investment. The site utilizes onsite natural gas engines (switchable to HVO/biomethane) and a 20 MW battery storage system to provide its own dispatchable power, with the capability to feed energy back into the national grid during peak demand. This innovative approach meets Ireland’s strict 2026 connection criteria requiring onsite generation for large energy users. The facility reinforces Dublin’s position as a primary European AI hub while pioneering sustainable, grid-independent infrastructure.
