REN Sacavém Data Center RENTELECOM Lisbon Carrier-Neutral Colocation

Status: Operational / Primary Capital Telecommunications Hub   |   Location: Sacavém, 2685 Loures, Greater Lisbon, Portugal

Project Overview

The REN Sacavém Data Center, also known as RENTELECOM Sacavém, is a carrier-neutral colocation, connectivity and enterprise hosting facility operated by RENTELECOM, the telecommunications and IT unit of REN, Redes Energéticas Nacionais. Located in Sacavém, within the Loures municipality of Greater Lisbon, Portugal, the facility occupies a strategically important position close to the Parque das Nações business and technology district and Lisbon's wider telecommunications ecosystem. The site provides approximately 1,200 square meters of technical space for telecommunications and IT infrastructure, supporting organizations that require resilient hosting, network connectivity and business continuity capabilities. Its position in the Lisbon metropolitan area provides access to major fiber routes and regional interconnection infrastructure, strengthening its role as a connectivity gateway for Southern Portugal. The facility is designed around high-availability principles, with redundant electrical infrastructure, static uninterruptible power supply systems, standby emergency generation and N+1 precision climate-control systems supporting continuous operation of critical equipment. A significant element of the facility's connectivity is its integration with RENTELECOM's wider optical transport network, which leverages infrastructure associated with REN's national energy transmission corridors. This network provides high-capacity communications routes between important Portuguese locations and supports geographically diverse connectivity for telecommunications and enterprise customers. The Sacavém facility also benefits from its proximity to Lisbon's internet exchange and international connectivity ecosystem, providing access to regional carrier networks and routes toward international submarine cable infrastructure. Its combination of colocation, telecommunications connectivity and network resilience makes the facility relevant to enterprises, carriers and digital service providers operating in Portugal. As Lisbon continues to strengthen its position as a European connectivity gateway, facilities such as REN Sacavém contribute to the distributed infrastructure supporting cloud services, enterprise applications, telecommunications networks and other data-intensive workloads. The site therefore forms part of RENTELECOM's broader national infrastructure footprint and Portugal's evolving digital connectivity ecosystem.
