Echelon Data Centres: A Pivotal Investment for Wicklow and Ireland
Echelon Data Centres‘ recent announcement of a significant investment in Co Wicklow marks a major milestone for both the local community and Ireland’s growing data centre sector. The company’s DUB20 data centre project is expected to bring substantial economic benefits, create hundreds of jobs, and contribute to the region’s sustainable development.
The grid connection approval for DUB20 is also a game-changer for Co Wicklow. This investment of €3.5 billion will revitalise the under-utilised IFI site in Arklow, transforming it into a thriving economic hub. The project will create over 1,100 construction jobs and 200 permanent positions, providing a much-needed boost to the local economy.

The company’s commitment to using renewable energy sources and reducing its carbon footprint aligns with Ireland’s ambitious climate goals. By incorporating onsite energy centres and investing in renewable energy infrastructure, Echelon is demonstrating how data centres can contribute to a more sustainable future.
