In 2020, European retail and wholesale data center providers were impaired by supply chain delays and site lock-downs across Europe due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The latest CBRE Q4 Europe Data Centre report showed a total 175 MW of new supply was added in 2020, down 145 MW compared with 2019, despite more optimistic projections from last year's CBRE Europe report. The impact of the pandemic resulted in a shortfall in new capacity supply - 61 megawatts (MW) less was added across Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam and Paris (FLAP) than was projected (234 MW) in January 2020. But today is a different story, with a record 415 MW of new supply scheduled to come online this year and more than 370 MW of new supply expected in 2022.
