Greece is witnessing an important surge in investment interest for the development of data centers, a trend that correlates with the exponential growth in global demand for computing power spurred by Artificial Intelligence technologies. A recent study conducted by PwC for the Ministry of Digital Governance reveals that the overall investment interest in establishing these data centers is estimated between 1.4 and 2.2 GW, with Attica province notably absorbing around 65% of this planned investment interest.

The report indicates that approximately 0.8 GW of the mentioned investment pertains to already announced projects, while an additional 1.2 GW is linked to 20 requests for connection to the national electricity transmission system (ADMHE) and about 0.2 GW associated with distribution network connection requests (DEDDHE). In Attica, the interest is estimated to be between 800 and 1,260 MW, with around 330 MW already having received connection terms.

Beyond Attica, there is also notable interest for investments, although the majority remains concentrated in this key region, which demonstrates the strategic significance of Attica in developing digital infrastructure in Greece. This investment trend reflects not only local economic interests but also attempts to position Greece as a competitive player in the global data center market as the reliance on digital technology expands.
