Home Technology Data Centre Khazna, Beeah Group to bring Sharjah its first Tier 3 data centre The joint venture will focus on addressing the growing demand for digital infrastructure in the emirate, while aiming for sustainable operations and net-zero emissions by 2050 by Divsha Bhat September 8, 2022 Khazna Data Centers, one of the wholesale data centre providers in the Middle East and North Africa, and Beeah Digital, Beeah Group’s digital transformation business, have formed a joint venture that will bring to Sharjah its first Tier 3 data centre. The data centre will be equipped with high-tech security, fire and environmental control systems and full redundancy grade power. The newly established joint venture will be called One Data Center SPV Limited and will operate under the name of Khazna Data Centers. Once operational, the data centre will have a capacity of 9MW. It will have multiple power and cooling pathways, maximising uptime while minimising the cost of maintenance and power. Technologies to reduce cooling requirements will be integrated into the data centre. With solar power, the project will minimise emissions relating to power consumption. Furthermore, the smart LED lighting with motion sensors will also help conserve energy. With a power usage efficiency of 1.5 and below, the data centre will be more energy-efficient compared to the industry average. The data centre will also be designed to reduce water consumption with systems to reuse and recycle wastewater. #KhaznaDataCenters and #Beeah Digital #Investment Limited to form a joint venture to design, develop and operate data center in #Sharjah, United Arab Emirates.https://t.co/6siSM7VpR3#Sustainability #DataCenters pic.twitter.com/i14lNznF33 — Khazna Data Centers (@khazna_dc) September 7, 2022 Ultimately, the data centre will adopt net-zero waste standards and certifications, benchmarked against the UAE’s sustainability agenda and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The facility will also be constructed to achieve green building certifications from Estidama and Leed. Hassan Alnaqbi, CEO of Khazna Data Centers stated: “The data centre will be well-positioned to support businesses in enhancing the experiences of their customers, unlocking the value of technologies, and making headway on their carbon footprint reduction goals by meeting their environmental and sustainability needs.” Khaled Al Huraimel, vice chairman and Group CEO, Beeah Group, said: “With a Tier 3 data centre, we can enhance the available infrastructure to government entities as well as private companies. The advanced IT infrastructure will help boost investments, attract business and bring world-class services and data sovereignty for the wider public.” Meanwhile, earlier this year, Beeah Group launched the region’s first commercial-scale, waste-to-energy plant in Sharjah with a 30 MW output. A portion of the output from this waste-to-energy plant is being explored as a potential energy source.
