Microsoft Quilicura (SCL03)

Microsoft is planning to build a new data center in Quilicura, Santiago, Chile. The project, known as "Proyecto Microsoft SCL03," involves an investment of $317 million and aims to provide electronic data storage, backup, recovery, and information management services to various businesses. The development will take place on a 6.8-hectare site and will be carried out in two phases. The first phase includes the construction of the initial storage unit (COLO1), an administration building, a 26 MVA substation, a high-voltage transmission line, and necessary support facilities. The second phase will expand the storage building to include the second unit (COLO2) and additional infrastructure. The data center will operate continuously, 24/7, and is expected to have a lifespan of 30 years.
