VIRTUS LONDON19 40 MW Slough Data Center United Kingdom
Status: Under Construction | Location: Slough Trading Estate, Slough, SL1 4DX, United Kingdom
Project Overview
VIRTUS LONDON19 Data Center, located within the strategic Slough Trading Estate in Berkshire, United Kingdom, represents a major expansion of VIRTUS Data Centers' hyperscale and high-density computing footprint west of London. Spanning more than 18,000 square meters, or approximately 193,000 square feet, of gross building space, the multi-story mission-critical facility is designed to provide scalable infrastructure for demanding digital workloads, including next-generation artificial intelligence AI training, high-performance computing (HPC), enterprise cloud services, and hyperscale colocation deployments. The facility forms part of the broader Slough data center ecosystem, one of the United Kingdom’s most established connectivity and digital infrastructure locations, providing access to extensive fiber networks, carrier connectivity, business customers, and critical technology infrastructure. London 19 is engineered around the requirements of modern high-density computing environments, where increased rack densities, advanced power distribution, efficient cooling systems, and resilient infrastructure are essential for maintaining reliable performance. The facility is expected to provide flexible technical space that can accommodate a range of enterprise and hyperscale requirements while supporting the increasing computational demands associated with AI and cloud applications. Its location within the Slough Trading Estate further strengthens VIRTUS Data Centers' ability to serve customers across London and the wider UK market while benefiting from the region’s concentration of telecommunications networks and technology businesses. As organizations increasingly deploy AI workloads, cloud platforms, data-intensive applications, and HPC systems, LONDON19 is positioned to contribute additional capacity to the United Kingdom’s rapidly evolving digital infrastructure landscape. The development also reinforces VIRTUS Data Centers' broader strategy of expanding resilient, high-density data center capacity in strategically connected locations capable of supporting the long-term growth of hyperscale, enterprise, and AI-driven computing requirements.
