Data centers in North Holland: 8 projects mapped
North Holland had 67 data centers in 2025, the province says, and about 20 more are in the permit stage, which would bring the total to 83 by 2030 and 92 by 2035. Most sit in three designated clusters: Hollands Kroon, where Google and Microsoft run data centers at Middenmeer; Haarlemmermeer, including Schiphol-Rijk and Halfweg; and Amsterdam, including the Science Park and Amstel Business Park sites of Digital Realty.
The province's draft environmental vision allows new data centers only inside those clusters, under strict conditions, and only where there is enough power. "We are concerned about the large energy demand of data centers in relation to grid congestion," provincial executive Esther Rommel said in July 2026 (translated from Dutch). The province says its rules on waste heat and water use keep getting tighter, and that the industry will have to come up with its own solutions to the power shortage.
