The UK government’s Data Centre Covenant explained

The Autumn Budget 2026 delivered a Data Centre Covenant policy initiative designed to keep AI benefits in Britain and champion home-grown data centre capacity. The Government estimates that Britain needs 6 GW of AI data centre capacity by 2030 to cement Britain’s position as a player in the new AI world. The Covenant is a consolidation and strengthening of existing policy and proposed reforms, with Government supporting faster and more certain delivery of strategic data centres, in return for responsible development that delivers lasting benefits for communities.   A new Ministerial Control Centre will be established to provide support for strategic data centres.

The convergence of data sovereignty, security, power, cooling, connectivity, service agreements and AI-driven operational demands is transforming the traditional data center lease or co-location agreement into a hybrid instrument. Part real estate contract, part technology service agreement. This trend reflects the complexity of projects, number of stakeholders involved, and the pace of technological change.

The construction phase remains the most common source of high-value disputes in data center projects, and disputes here can disrupt delivery schedules, undermine revenue projections and strain key commercial relationships well beyond the immediate cost of the underlying issue. As builds become more complex, this risk escalates further.

Hybrid power platform - The advantage of integration

The most advanced data center projects are moving beyond simply connecting to power and toward becoming integrated energy platforms in their own right — co-locating dedicated generation and storage with the data center itself. Here’s what you need to know.

The new dynamics of data center site selection

With greenfield land limited and grid connection timelines long, developers are widening their search for data center sites, crossing borders and acquiring land previously considered too compromised to be viable.
