FRANCE DATA CENTER MARKET SIZE INSIGHTS

The France data center market size will witness investments of USD 6.40 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 10.98% during the forecast period. France is one of the growing data center markets in the European data center region and is witnessing a surge in demand for data centers due to factors such as digitalization across industries. With enterprises embracing cloud solutions and AI-driven applications, hyperscale and colocation providers are expanding their footprints in France. Moreover, the French government has set the goal to achieve a renewable energy share of at least 41% in electricity generation by 2030, transitioning away from fossil fuels and promoting carbon neutrality across the country.

The France data center market has the presence of several local and global data center operators, such as Digital Realty, Equinix, DATA4, Telehouse, Global Switch, Orange Business Services, Thésée Datacenter, Etix Everywhere, SFR Business, Colt Data Centre Services, and others. Furthermore, the major locations for data center developments in the country include Paris, Marseille, Strasbourg, Bordeaux, and Mougins. France enhances its network of FTZs and EPZs with strategic developments concentrated in regions such as Lille, Marseille, and Lyon. The country currently has around 20 FTZs, and two more are under construction, which serve to strengthen the role of France as a key player in the European digital market.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  1. France's government took several initiatives to support investment in renewable energy through a tax credit program. For instance, in December 2023, the France government introduced tax credits for renewable energy investment, including projects such as the production of batteries, solar panels, wind turbines, and heat pumps. Under this program, the government provides tax credits between 20% to 60%, depending on the size and location of the projects.
  2. The France government is taking the initiative to support AI data center growth and digital infrastructure in France. For instance, in February 2024, the French government announced that it had signed an agreement with the government of the United Arab Emirates to invest around USD 52 billion for an AI data center in France with a power capacity of around 1 GW.
  3. Data centers involved in research and development activities might qualify for the Crédit d'Impôt Recherche (CIR), which offers a tax credit for eligible R&D expenditures.
  4. In the France data center market, facilities are starting to adopt liquid cooling technologies for their data center to improve cooling and power consumption in data centers. For instance, in January 2024, DATA4 announced that it had signed a partnership with OVHcloud to provide OVHcloud's liquid cooling solution at Data4's site in Marcoussis, Paris.
  5. In October 2024, Amazon announced that through its subsidiary Amazon Web Services, it will provide digital skill training, including cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and security, to around 600,000 people in France by 2030.
