Status: Under Construction (Groundbreaking March 25, 2026) | Location: Via delle Regioni, Segrate, Lombardy
Officially breaking ground on March 25, 2026, the CyrusOne MIL1 data center is a state-of-the-art €250 million infrastructure project that marks the company's inaugural entry into the highly strategic Italian digital market. Located in the Segrate municipality of Greater Milan, the three-story facility is designed to deliver 27MW of critical IT capacity across 7,000 square meters of technical space, divided into three specialized 9MW data halls. Engineered to support the dual demands of massive cloud architecture and high-density enterprise workloads, MIL1 serves as a crucial Southern European connectivity platform linking Western Europe with emerging digital corridors across the Mediterranean. The project stands out as an urban regeneration benchmark, transforming a long-abandoned industrial zone while contributing over €6 million toward local community improvements, including photovoltaic installations on public schools and the preservation of the adjacent 700,000-square-meter Golfo Agricolo biodiverse parkland. Operating on 100% renewable energy and aiming for a prestigious BREEAM 'Very Good' rating, the campus incorporates advanced closed-loop cooling configurations and a built-in heat recovery system designed to capture waste thermal energy for prospective integration into Milan's municipal district heating networks.
