£15 billion green data centre network planned for Scotland’s central belt

Mark Wilson, CEO of ILI Group, discusses the ILI Group’s plans for three new hyperscale data centres across Scotland, creating what it calls The Stoics – a £15 billion Green Digital Network spanning the central belt. The projects, named after Stoic philosophers, are located in Fife (Cato), East Ayrshire (Rufus), and North Lanarkshire (Aurelius). The Stoics will stand among the largest hyperscale data centre clusters globally - more than double the size of many of today’s biggest recognised campuses.
