Modular buildings for data centre projects
New Zealand's data centre market is growing fast, from around 100MW of installed capacity today to a forecast 315MW by 2030. The challenge isn't demand, it's delivery. Power, grid connections, land and consenting all affect whether capacity is ready when customers need it.
Modular construction lets the supporting buildings be manufactured in our factory while site works carry on in parallel. That means more programme certainty, less activity on site and fewer workstreams waiting on each other.
What we build
A-Line manufactures a range of modular facilities for data centre sites across New Zealand:
- Electrical and switch rooms
- UPS rooms
- Control and operations rooms
- Administration buildings
- Gatehouses and security buildings
- Welfare facilities
- Plant enclosures
- Corridor systems linking buildings and operational areas
Modular, hybrid or traditional
Not every part of a data centre needs to be built the same way. Many projects take a hybrid approach, with supporting infrastructure built offsite and other elements delivered traditionally. We'll help you work out which parts of your project suit modular delivery.
Talk to us early
Modular delivers the most value when it's considered at feasibility and concept design, while layouts, service routes and equipment strategies are still flexible. Early engagement lets us look at transport and installation, structural and equipment loads, and where standardisation can save time. Once the major design decisions are locked in, those opportunities shrink.
