Bain Capital is expanding its footprint in the datacenter sector with the launch of hscale, aimed specifically at serving hyperscalers in Europe. This move appears to capitalize on rising unease towards U.S.-based hyperscalers. Founded on Bain's acquisition of an 80% stake in AQ Compute, hscale plans a multibillion-euro investment to build sustainable data facilities across Europe, with current sites in major cities. The initiative emphasizes renewable energy and carbon footprint reduction as part of a strategy to address compute sovereignty issues in the region.
Bain Capital is launching hscale, a new operation for hyperscalers in Europe, responding to customer concerns about US hyperscalers and investing in sustainable data centers.
The partnership between Bain Capital and Aquila Group aims to develop sustainable data facilities, with a focus on renewable energy and minimizing carbon footprints during operations.
