CRA chief executive Miloš Mastnik talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the development of Prague Gateway DC, a new large-scale data centre project in the Czech Republic. Mastnik explained that the facility will be unique in the region, offering a size and capacity unmatched within a 450km radius of Prague, with the nearest comparable facility located in Frankfurt. The Prague Gateway DC will have a capacity of 26MW and space for over 2,000 racks.
Mastnik said: “It’s a unique construction in this region. As I said, there’s nothing like that that can be compared to this size.” He added that the project addresses rising demand for large-scale data capacity, which until now had been unmet in the Czech Republic and surrounding markets.
The chief executive confirmed that construction has already begun following the granting of zoning and building permits, with ground-breaking recently celebrated alongside the Minister of Industry and Trade. He noted that demand for secure, well-connected, and power-resilient facilities is rising across Central and Eastern Europe, reflecting the same drivers seen globally.
Mastnik highlighted how the Prague Gateway DC supports CRA’s wider infrastructure strategy under Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Ltd (LSE:CORD), while also linking to the AI Gigafactory initiative in Europe. He added that CRA has already started providing GPU-as-a-service, underscoring its focus on AI and next-generation technologies.
