firstcolo and OVAG are initiating a project to build a modern data center in Rosbach, Germany, with completion expected by late 2027 and an investment of around 250 million euros. The facility will span over 11,500 square meters, delivering IT capacity of up to 24 megawatts and supporting high-performance servers and AI applications.

It will feature a carrier-neutral connection with redundant fiber optics for reliability. Emphasizing energy efficiency, the center will provide waste heat to Rosbach for local heating networks. OVAG holds a 20% stake in the project, contributing both capital and expertise in energy supply. The initiative aims to strengthen regional infrastructure and resilience, combining digital infrastructure with sustainable energy supply.
