The company ordered about $1bn of Nvidia systems. The UK site starts at 30MW with roughly 7,000 Rubin GPUs and 3,500 Vera CPUs in Vera Rubin NVL72 racks, due online by the end of 2027, and is planned to grow to 530MW. SWI Group says it spent six years securing 3.6GW of power capacity across 24 sites in Europe and the US, and SWI Compute targets 2.3GW of AI factory capacity by 2029. Energy availability is the main bottleneck for European AI infrastructure, CEO Halil Mirakhmedov says. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How many Nvidia Rubin GPUs will SWI Compute's UK AI factory campus have? The UK campus will start with close to 7,000 Rubin GPUs and 3,500 Vera CPUs housed in Nvidia Vera Rubin NVL72 racks. The site begins at 30MW of power and is planned to grow to 530MW, with the facility expected online by the end of 2027. _Track how Nvidia's Rubin platform rolls out across new data centers on daily.dev._ ### Why is energy capacity a bigger constraint than GPU supply for building AI data centers in Europe? SWI Compute's CEO Halil Mirakhmedov says energy availability is the primary bottleneck facing European AI infrastructure, not chip supply. Parent company SWI Group spent six years securing 3.6GW of power capacity across 24 sites in Europe and the US before building out GPU capacity. _Developers weighing cloud GPU access against power constraints follow this infrastructure shift on daily.dev._ ### How much Nvidia AI factory capacity is SWI Compute planning to deploy by 2029? SWI Compute aims for 2.3GW of Nvidia AI factory capacity by 2029. It became a preferred Nvidia cloud partner in August, ordered about $1bn of Nvidia systems, and its first deployment runs Nvidia Blackwell Ultra systems integrated by Delta Computers across more than 8,000 GPUs. _Anyone evaluating future GPU cloud availability can follow neocloud capacity buildouts on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Nvidia, Deutsche Telekom strike €1B partnership for a data center in Munich](https://daily.dev/posts/nvidia-deutsche-telekom-strike-1b-partnership-for-a-data-center-in-munich-hlg0z4xtm) · TechCrunch · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [French companies bid $10bn for one of the EU’s five planned AI gigafactory sites](https://daily.dev/posts/french-companies-bid-10bn-for-one-of-the-eu-s-five-planned-ai-gigafactory-sites-yzt4wwzhn) · The Next Web · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [The Billion-Dollar Deal Reshaping Nvidia and OpenAI’s AI Ambitions](https://daily.dev/posts/the-billion-dollar-deal-reshaping-nvidia-and-openai-s-ai-ambitions-ebvdyugjr) · Medium · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#nvidia](https://daily.dev/tags/nvidia), [#gpu](https://daily.dev/tags/gpu), [#ai-infrastructure](https://daily.dev/tags/ai-infrastructure) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/swi-compute-plans-a-530mw-nvidia-ai-factory-campus-in-the-uk-4fl27nlo6) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"SWI Compute plans a 530MW Nvidia AI factory campus in the UK","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/swi-compute-plans-a-530mw-nvidia-ai-factory-campus-in-the-uk-4fl27nlo6","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/swi-compute-plans-a-530mw-nvidia-ai-factory-campus-in-the-uk-4fl27nlo6"},"datePublished":"2026-10-26T19:28:36.728Z","dateModified":"2026-10-26T19:33:00.172Z","description":"SWI Group has launched SWI Compute to build Nvidia AI factories in Europe, starting with a UK campus.
