Another data centre for Green on the Zurich-West Metro Campus in Lupfig
Green, the leading Swiss data centre provider, has commissioned Implenia as general contractor for shell and core construction of a new high-performance data centre: 5,526 m² of new data centre floorspace is being built at the company’s headquarters in Lupfig. Construction started at the beginning of January, and the data centre is scheduled to start operations in 2026. Implenia’s specialist team is bringing its many years of experience and comprehensive expertise in data centre construction to the project. The company has already built two data centres and an office building for Green in Dielsdorf, where yet another data center is currently under construction. This means Implenia will have built seven data centres in the Zurich area. It sees further major growth potential in this market.
