Colt London 4 data centre
Colt London 4 data centre is a data centre in England, United Kingdom, with a 4,973 m² building, operated by Colt Data Centre Services. It lies 0.5 km from a 22 kV substation and is in an area of high water stress.
Power and water
The nearest substation is Springfield Road Primary, a 22 kV primary substation run by Southern Electric Power Distribution plc, 0.5 km away. Its network operator publishes 0 MVA of demand headroom and 25 MW of generation headroom there, and the network there is full for new demand.
No power plant of 50 MW or more is in operation within 10 km, in the plant registers we hold.
Water stress here is high: withdrawals take 52.2% of the renewable water supply of its sub-basin (WRI Aqueduct 4.0, baseline, score 3.4 of 5).
Distances run between the points of the records. How the grid and plants nearby are found; water stress from WRI Aqueduct 4.0.
