SDC M40 Campus DC03

The SDC M40 Campus, a proposed 300MW data center project, is located in Gerrards Cross, United Kingdom, adjacent to the M40 motorway. Backed by SDC Capital Partners and Veolia, the development plans include three 100MW data center buildings, an on-site gas turbine energy center, and auxiliary structures on a former landfill site. This project has been designated a Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) by the UK Government, allowing it to apply for a Development Consent Order (DCO) directly from the Secretary of State, bypassing local planning authorities. This designation reflects the UK government's broader strategy to facilitate data center development and recognizes data centers as Critical National Infrastructure.
