Scenario ranking uses historical screening assumptions. It does not verify a demand connection, usable area, delivery date or acquisition rights.

A closing 60 ha chemicals complex in Europe's largest port, with exceptional infrastructure context and equally serious decommissioning, policy and power-allocation questions.

IT scenario38–50 MWLand148 acresUnverified timingPost-2026 / unconfirmed
Source-linked research5 references

Control and import rights remain unverified.

Power position

Energy-hub adjacency is strategically valuable, but no allocation for a data-centre load is confirmed.

Principal constraint

Seveso/RIE-4 decommissioning obligations and Dutch data-centre policy could override an otherwise strong physical-site thesis.

A closed, energy-intensive industrial facility inside a dense German infrastructure corridor, with credible land quantum and corporate ownership visibility.

IT scenario20–30 MWLand26.1 acresUnverified timing2029+ indicative
Source-linked research4 references

Control and import rights remain unverified.

Power position

Historic public-grid consumption supports further inquiry; no surviving connection entitlement or firm capacity is evidenced.

Principal constraint

Historic industrial demand does not establish that capacity is available, transferable or suitable for a new high-load connection.

A compact biomass-generation site with an established industrial footprint and a traceable operating-company route in Cambridgeshire.

IT scenario20–23 MWLand7.7 ha permittedUnverified timing2028–29 indicative
Source-linked research4 references

Control and import rights remain unverified.

Power position

The permitted 38 MWe export plant evidences a grid connection, not capacity available to import for a data-centre load.

Principal constraint

A former generator can be well connected for export without having sufficient import capacity for a data centre. That distinction remains unresolved.
