Madrid, 10 December 2025 - Quetta Data Centers, the platform created by Azora in collaboration with  Core Tech Capital for the development of edge and AI data centers, has begun construction on its Tres Cantos (Madrid) data center, doubling its capacity to 20 MW. The company is also continuing its expansion with the launch of its first project in Barcelona, ​​located in Molins de Rei, where construction is already underway. As the company moves forward with the creation of a network of eco-efficient, AI-ready, low-latency, high-connectivity edge data centers, powered by 100% renewable energy and with no water consumption.

Quetta's strategic plan includes the construction of six edge data centers in Spain and Portugal, with closed-loop liquid cooling (DLC), no water consumption (WUE 0), and a power usage effectiveness (PUE) of less than 1.15, with a planned investment exceeding €500 million. The Molins de Rei project in Barcelona and the expansion of the Madrid data center will allow Quetta to reach a total capacity to 30 MW, 50% of its overall target of 60 MW.

Azora launched Quetta Data Centers in 2024, in collaboration with Core Tech Capital, combining operational and execution capabilities to deploy a network of proximity data centers. Since then, the project has been supported by a team with over 25 years of experience in the sector and by continuously evolving technology, capable of adapting to the new challenges of each location, maintaining efficiency, resilience, and sustainability criteria from design to operation.

Driven by the growth of the digital economy, the data center sector is experiencing a period of strong expansion, with accelerating demand to support new workloads in artificial intelligence, streaming, gaming, augmented reality, the Internet of Things, and other emerging technologies.

Santiago Olivares, partner responsible for energy, infrastructure, and sustainability investments at Azora, commented: “We see a clear opportunity in developing a network of sustainable, local data centers. Our strategy prioritizes assets capable of generating economic growth, along with the highest environmental standards – powered by 100% renewable energy, no water consumption, and energy efficiency.”

Paco González, founding partner of Core Tech Capital and CEO of Quetta, commented: “With the start of construction in Barcelona and the expansion of capacity at our Madrid facilities, we continue to advance in the creation of a network of sustainable, resilient, and AI-ready data centers. All of them incorporate closed-loop liquid cooling (DLC) technologies, operate on 100% renewable energy, consume no water, and implement solutions that guarantee maximum energy efficiency, as well as a flexible architecture optimal for all types of clients.”
