Poland Data Center Market - Investment Analysis & Growth Opportunities 2026-2031

POLAND DATA CENTER MARKET SIZE & OUTLOOK

The Poland data center market size was valued at USD 1.28 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 3.15 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 16.19% during the forecast period. The Poland data center market is emerging as one of the fastest-growing digital infrastructure hubs in Central and Eastern Europe, supported by rising cloud adoption, increasing demand for Artificial Intelligence (AI) workloads, and ongoing digital transformation across industries. Poland’s strategic geographic location, strong connectivity to Western and Eastern European markets, as well as competitive operational costs continue to attract both hyperscale cloud providers and colocation operators.

The market is witnessing strong investment momentum from global hyperscalers. For instance, in February 2025, Microsoft announced an investment of approximately $780 million to expand its cloud and AI infrastructure in Poland, strengthening cybersecurity capabilities and increasing regional computing capacity. These developments highlight the country’s growing role as a regional hub for cloud services and AI infrastructure.

As of 2025, developing a data center in Poland costs between $8-$10 per watt, with projections indicating further growth due to inflation, supply chain pressures, and interest rate impacts.

As of September 2025, the total core and shell IT power capacity stood at over 200.6 MW. Several data center companies account for upcoming data center projects in the under-construction phase or planned phase. These projects, expected to be operational during the forecast period, will increase power capacity.

In Poland, data protection is primarily governed by two principal legal instruments: the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), formally Regulation (EU) 2016/679, and the Act of May 10, 2018, on the Protection of Personal Data.

The growing adoption of AI applications is increasing the demand for GPU-based data center infrastructure in Poland. Operators are increasingly deploying High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems equipped with advanced GPUs to support AI training, cloud gaming, and complex data processing workloads. For instance, in February 2026, DL Invest Group, in partnership with Boosteroid, announced plans to develop a 50 MW data center with an AI development component in Bielsko-Biała, expected to be completed by 2028.
