Data Centre ELV & ICT Design
for France Facilities

Greater Paris holds more than 75% of France's data centre capacity. Power and land limits are steering AI-focused builds towards regional hubs such as Marseille, Lyon, Grenoble and Dunkirk.

Yes, at the ELV and ICT layer: cabling, security, fire interfaces, monitoring and BMS points. Power and cooling design is by your MEP and electrical engineers, and we coordinate the interfaces.

Market Context

The France Data Centre Market

Greater Paris holds more than 75% of France's data centre capacity. Power and land limits are steering AI-focused builds towards regional hubs such as Marseille, Lyon, Grenoble and Dunkirk.

The French bill that transposes NIS2 had not been adopted in October 2026, so the obligations were not yet in force in France. The ANSSI ReCyF framework is published guidance that inspectors can use. For OT and building systems, we recommend designing zones, remote access and logging now.

Design Scope

Data Centre ELV & ICT Design Scope

Scope is agreed against the data centre brief and the appointed consultant's design criteria, not a fixed package.

Structured cabling and diverse routes
Main, horizontal and zone distribution, fibre backbones, and separate routes where the resilience target requires them.
Rack, cabinet & containment layouts
Rack elevations, containment routes, and separation between power and data paths within the hall.
CCTV, access control & perimeter
Perimeter, hall and white-space coverage, with access control zones for machine rooms, plant areas and staff entry.
Fire detection interfaces
Early smoke detection, alarm zoning and interfaces with suppression systems where the project specifies them.
Cooling & environmental monitoring
Sensor and control points for cooling plant, temperature, humidity and leak detection, integrated to the BMS or DCIM platform.
Power and energy monitoring
Metering and monitoring points that show power use and support capacity planning as the facility grows.
Sector FAQs

Data Centre Design FAQs — France

Our core scope is the ELV and ICT layers: cabling, security, fire detection interfaces, AV and monitoring. Mechanical and electrical power design is by your MEP and electrical engineers, and we coordinate the interfaces with them.
Yes, at the ELV and ICT layer. We design cabling, security and monitoring redundancy to the targets you confirm. We do not certify a facility against any tier or standard.
We design the metering, BMS data points and network paths that support the energy reporting that applies in France. The reporting duty and the data definitions come from the operator and the applicable rules.
