Green EDGE Data
UK · Ireland · Europe

Clean compute, where the grid can't reach.

Deployable, low-power sovereign & enterprise edge — sold or leased with a managed energy-and-security operating layer. Renewable-powered micro data centres that go live in days on on-site solar and battery, sidestepping the multi-year grid queue.

The problem

The compute boom has hit a power wall

Demand for compute is soaring, but power and grid access — not chips — have become the binding constraint. Capacity can't be plugged in fast enough, and the big hubs are full.

~945 TWh
Projected global data-centre electricity demand by 2030 — roughly double 2025 (IEA).
7–10+ yrs
Typical grid-connection queues for new capacity across the UK and Europe.
Hubs full
Major markets such as Amsterdam and Dublin have curbed or paused new large builds.
What we do

A complete data centre the size of a container module

Each Green EDGE Data unit is a self-contained micro data centre — similar in size to a 20- or 40-ft container — built to spec and delivered ready to connect. Efficient, low-power compute and an integrated energy system let it run clean and quiet, close to where data is created and used.

Inside a Green EDGE Data module — low-power compute and on-site energy storage
  • Modular & plug-and-play — self-contained units built off-site and delivered ready to run; live in days, not years.
  • Energy-efficient, low-power compute — a fraction of the power and cooling of conventional GPU racks, with far less waste heat.
  • Renewable + storage — on-site solar/wind and battery storage, with off-peak top-up and a small backup generator.
  • Grid-light — runs largely on stored renewable energy, sidestepping the multi-year connection queue.
How it works

Inside the module

Compute, storage, generation and connectivity, integrated into one weatherproof unit and managed remotely — engineered for unmanned operation at the edge.

⚡

Efficient compute

High performance-per-watt, low-power servers — simple cooling, minimal heat.

🔋

Storage

On-site battery charged by renewables and cheap off-peak power.

☀️

Generation

On-site solar/wind, with a small backup generator as a safety net.

🌐

Connectivity

High-speed fibre and low-latency network access at the point of demand.

Why now

Four tailwinds, all accelerating

Edge AI

Inference is moving out of the core and toward users and devices.

5G & MEC

Low-latency services need compute at the network edge.

IoT

Tens of billions of connections — process locally, don't backhaul.

Regulation

EU rules increasingly favour low-carbon, renewable-powered compute.

Solutions

One platform, many edges

Neutral-host capacity for the workloads that need to live close to users — delivered as colocation, managed services or a turnkey edge node.

📡

Telecom & 5G edge

Neutral-host colocation at towers and exchanges — the low-latency anchor.

🧠

Edge AI inference

Run inference close to users and devices, not in a distant core region.

🏙️

Smart city

Traffic, public-safety and environmental compute for councils and partners.

🏢

Enterprise edge

Low-latency private cloud and data locality, on-site or nearby.

🎬

Content & caching

CDN edge nodes, gaming and community cloud, closer to the audience.

🌱

Sustainability & Scope-3

Renewable, low-PUE capacity that helps customers cut their emissions.

Neutral-host capacity at the mast

A self-contained module at towers and exchanges delivers mobile-edge compute exactly where it's needed — installed inside a secure, fenced compound with CCTV and controlled access for unattended, carrier-grade operation.

Deployed fast

Live in days — grid-queue-free

Because each unit is built off-site and carries its own power and cooling, deployment is measured in days. Sites that would wait years for a grid connection can be serving traffic this quarter.

Commercial options

Capacity your way — buy, lease or colocate

Customer-funded first — buy outright or via supported purchase — or take a fully-managed lease, with colocation where it fits. Every option is wrapped in the same managed energy-and-security operating layer. Capital-light by design.

📶

Colocation / managed service

Rent capacity per kW per month — we own, run and maintain it. Pure OpEx, scale up or down.

🔑

Managed lease

A dedicated module as-a-service for a fixed monthly fee, fully managed under SLA. No capital outlay.

🛠️

Supported purchase

Own the module while we handle monitoring, energy management and maintenance under a support contract.

📦

Outright purchase

Buy a turnkey module and run it yourself — full ownership and control.

🔁

Build-Own-Transfer

Lease now and own later via a pre-agreed transfer — OpEx today, ownership at term.

➕

Layered services

Add edge-AI inference and managed services on top of any model as your needs grow.

Why we're different

Built for the efficient edge — not the megawatt race

Most of the industry is chasing ever-larger, power-hungry facilities. We do the opposite: small, grid-light, efficient units placed exactly where the demand is.

Power
The field: grid-tied, or reliant on stranded grid power.
Green EDGE: grid-light — on-site solar/wind + battery.
Footprint
The field: megawatt halls chasing large-scale AI.
Green EDGE: micro modules sized for the real edge — towers, exchanges, urban sites.
Compute
The field: power-hungry racks and heavy cooling.
Green EDGE: efficiency-first compute — a fraction of the power and cooling.
Workloads
The field: centralised capacity, far from users.
Green EDGE: 5G/MEC, edge-AI, smart-city and caching — next to users.

Sustainability

Green by design, not by offset

Sustainability is built into the unit economics, not bolted on. On-site renewables and storage, a low power draw and minimal cooling mean a low PUE and a genuinely smaller footprint per unit of compute.

Where we operate

UK, Ireland & Europe

United Kingdom

Our primary market now — data centres are Critical National Infrastructure, and high power prices and grid queues reward an efficient, grid-light model.

Ireland

A distinctive niche — small, renewable-powered modules fit where large builds face grid constraints around Dublin.

Europe

The scale opportunity — hub saturation plus fast-growing secondary markets and strong sustainability and sovereignty drivers.
