Operated by Schwarz Digits at Lubbenau Site (Schwarz Digits) .
Phase 1 seed dataset, compiled by hand. These rows were built from public operator, laboratory and vendor sources. A mechanical second-reader pass has since fetched every cited source: 1092 of 1153 systems have a readable citation that names them, and 40 are genuinely weakly sourced. Every claim carries its source and a confidence tier. Treat anything below verified as a lead, not a citation.

What this machine is made of
One row per supplier relationship. “Supplier at build” is the company that shipped the part at the time; where that company has since been acquired, the parent it rolls up to today is shown beside it. That distinction is what makes ticker-level aggregation possible across a thirty-year dataset.
| Role | Part | Supplier at build | Quantity | Confidence | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Integrator | - Schwarz Digits builds the 200 MW data center for up to 100,000 GPUs, operated by STACKIT | Schwarz Digits | - | Reported | schwarz-digits.dedatacenter-insider.de |
| Cooling | - Direct liquid cooling with high flow temperatures and waste heat to district heating from 2028 | Schwarz Digits | - | Reported | datacenter-insider.deschwarz-digits.de |

| Metric | Value | As of | Basis | Note | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Accelerators | 100,000 accelerators | 2025-11 | Design target | Design ceiling: the modular data center can take up to 100,000 GPUs in future; vendor not named. | schwarz-digits.dedatacenter-insider.de |
| Facility power | 200 MW | 2025-11 | Design target | Connected load of about 200 MW at the Lubbenau site. | schwarz-digits.dedatacenter-insider.de |
The read
Schwarz Digits' 11 billion euro AI data center on the 13-hectare site of a former power plant in Lubbenau, Brandenburg, with groundbreaking on 18 November 2025. Schwarz Digits states a connected load of about 200 MW and a modular design that can take up to 100,000 GPUs, used mainly for AI inference and training, with direct liquid cooling and waste heat for district heating from 2028; datacenter-insider reports the first phase of three modules is due by the end of 2027. STACKIT, the Schwarz Group cloud, will operate it as its fifth data center. No GPU vendor is named, the 100,000 figure is a design ceiling, and the second source is trade press repeating the same announcement.
