Ravenscraig Data Centre Campus

In planning

Proposals reuse part of the former steelworks site. Current consultation material pairs the 550 MW data campus with a 150 MW BESS. Earlier material referred to a larger battery concept, so the two versions should not be combined into one specification.

Where its electricity comes from

Grid supply. Site-specific renewable contracts, private-wire supply and annual consumption have not been confirmed in the reviewed source.

Cooling, water and backup power

Cooling and water-use figures have not been independently confirmed.

Backup capacity and fuel are not quantified in this profile.

Associated battery proposal: 150 MW. Stored energy: Not published. A battery shifts energy in time; it does not create a renewable supply.

Rated capacity is not present consumption. Renewable procurement claims describe contracts or certificates unless hourly matching and physical supply are evidenced. No live site meter is connected to this page.
