Mercury proudly completes handover of landmark 76MW Paris Digital Park campus to Digital Realty
Mercury’s Data Centre and Building Services business unit team recently came together in Paris, alongside our local supply chain partners and members of the Digital Realty France team to mark the completion of the PAR 11 project and handover of Digital Realty’s visionary Paris Digital campus. The event was a special commemoration of the commitment and collaborative efforts from all stakeholders throughout the delivery of this project.
The Paris Digital Park campus comprises the PAR 8, PAR 9, PAR 10, and PAR 11 data centres, which will collectively deliver a combined 76 MW of IT capacity. The Mercury team, led by Business Unit Lead Ray Scanlon have been at work on the campus since 2020, overseeing critical site-wide infrastructure, including the shell and core, architectural façade and roof, as well as the fitout of architectural, mechanical and electrical systems across multiple state-of-the-art data halls, supported by modularised plant rooms and sustainable design features.
The campus is powered by 100% renewable energy, produced in France via Guarantees of Origin certificates and is certified to ISO 50001. Each facility features high-density power racks, advanced fire suppression systems, efficient free cooling and robust fibre connectivity, ensuring the campus is ready to meet the demands of the digital future. Paris Digital Park, with its modular design and hybrid cooling solutions, is built to accelerate digital innovation and meet the demands of AI.
Beyond the technical excellence, Mercury’s contribution to the local community also includes the delivery of a 7,500 m2 public park for the residents of La Courneuve- a lasting benefit that reflects the company’s commitment to social responsibility and positive local impact.
Tim Reid, Business Unit Managing Director, commented, “It’s been a great honour for us to lead the delivery of this leading-edge campus for Digital Realty. I’d like to thank them for their trust and collaboration over the years. This is a state-of-the-art, innovative and sustainable facility, and capable to meet the demands of AI in this exciting new age of digital infrastructure. I’d also like to thank our team and supply chain partners for their hard work which they should be proud of. They’ve brought exceptional expertise and a dynamic delivery approach to meet Digital Realty’s needs.”
The Paris Digital Park campus is a powerful example of what can be achieved when world-class engineering, collaboration and shared purpose come together. It reaffirms Mercury’s long-standing relationship with our client Digital Realty, and our team’s unrivalled work ethic, unmatched scalability and application of best-in-class technologies to deliver certainty.
