Planning and delivery status
Green's undated current campus page lists two data centres and a third under construction. The operating label applies to the campus, not the unfinished third building.

What the power evidence establishes
The site-specific connection scope has not been established for this record.
Power classDNo qualifying rung
No same-scope, dated import-MVA rung has document-seen or better verification. Nearby infrastructure, IT MW and marketing claims cannot upgrade the class.
The class describes published documentary evidence at its stated date. It does not prove current contractual rights, transferability or an energisation date.
Class describes evidence maturity. Public records do not prove current contractual rights, transferable capacity or an energisation date. This record has not received a complete power study review.

Conflicts and scope comparisons
No conflicting pair is recorded. This does not establish that all public statements have been reconciled.
03
Switzerland grid context
Network publications frame the claim. They do not allocate capacity to this site.
No country context entries have been linked to this site. Applicable policy, capacity information and reinforcement dependencies need review.
04
Derived energisation window
Earliest plausible yearUnknown
Latest plausible yearUnknown
The observed inputs do not establish a bounded delivery range. Open bounds stay unknown.
Rule
Use only a same-scope, dated, document-verified capacity rung and an applicable duration to energisation published by the observed site operator. The named process operator and a named source publisher must match that operator. Earliest year is the maximum of stage date plus minimum duration and each evidenced readiness constraint. Latest year is the maximum of stage date plus maximum duration and each published upper constraint only when every required input is bounded. An offer-processing duration is excluded. A missing required input leaves the affected bound unknown; no padding or contractual delivery promise is inferred.
No observed inputs establish this result.
Dependencies driving the range
- Connection-dependent reinforcement scope and completion dates: unknown.
- Grid-works planning status and programme: unknown.
- Applicable connection-policy conditions and programme: unknown.
What the earliest case requires
- Connection-dependent reinforcement scope and completion dates introduces no later constraint than the earliest case; this remains unverified.
- Grid-works planning status and programme introduces no later constraint than the earliest case; this remains unverified.
- Applicable connection-policy conditions and programme introduces no later constraint than the earliest case; this remains unverified.
Missing inputs leave the range open
- A dated, document-verified import-MVA rung for the assessed scope.
- An applicable duration from the evidenced stage to energisation, published by and matched to the observed site operator, rather than an offer-processing target.
- Connection-dependent reinforcement scope and completion dates
- Grid-works planning status and programme
- Applicable connection-policy conditions and programme
05
Indicative HV and connection capex
Unknown
Rule and scope
Sum each published complete scope quantity multiplied by the matching published benchmark minimum and maximum. Configuration, voltage, route type, unit, country applicability, currency and explicit price base year must match. No assumed route length, transformer count, exchange rate, inflation, fee uplift or partial index is inserted. The result is an indicative benchmark band, not an operator quotation or contractual connection charge.
No observed inputs establish this result.
Scope questions
- Obtain a published complete connection scope with voltage, configuration and measured quantities.
- Establish that every necessary connection-work component is included in the published scope.
- Identify network and customer works, upstream reinforcement, land and wayleaves, taxes, fees, securities, contingency and the price base.

Import rights and connection evidence
EKZ planned Dielsdorf supply backed by Regensdorf and Steinmaur substations. The new regional substation is designed for three 50 MVA transformers, initially two; no campus import entitlement follows from those ratings.
IT load, facility demand, import capacity and equipment ratings retain their stated scope. A published figure does not establish spare or transferable supply.

Ownership & development control
Partial evidenceEnergie 360° records Green agreeing in December 2022 to provide part of its office-building land for the energy centre. This evidences project control, without a title extract or executed land agreement.

Land, footprint & access
Partial evidenceCouncil records tie the Green development to parcel 1599 on Niederhaslistrasse. Operator states a 46,000 m² campus; neither establishes net developable area or title.

Water, cooling & heat
Partial evidenceGreen describes ambient-air free cooling and hybrid air/liquid capability. Energie 360° still schedules first Dielsdorf heat deliveries for autumn 2026; network completion is not inferred from installed campus recovery.

Programme & delivery
Partial evidenceOperator still distinguishes two data centres from a third under construction. Energie 360° records coordinated 2025–summer-2026 electricity and heat works with Axpo/EKZ, separate from autumn-2026 first heat delivery.

Evidence still needed
- Land-use zoning
The site boundary has not been matched to the current adopted zoning map and data-centre use policy.
- Flood, ground & environment
Flood risk, ground conditions, contamination, ecology, heritage, noise and air-quality constraints have not been fully assessed here.
- Demand & location fit
Customer geography, latency, cloud or exchange nodes and a supported use case need project-specific evidence; national growth alone is insufficient.
