Demolition of the existing single storey house of 'Erganagh' and the construction of a two storey data centre and delivery bays with associated three storey office block and services that will have a gross floor area of 35,426sq.m on an overall site of 9.2 hectares. The two storey data centre facility and delivery bay (32,419sq.m) will be separated into two adjoined blocks over two floors with a single data hall on each floor of each data centre with service and technical space around each data hall (4 data halls overall) with a two storey delivery bay attached to the east of the data centre block. A three storey office block and delivery bay (2,882sq.m) is attached to the west of the data centre block. The data centre will be served by services and plant to the north of the data centre blocks that will include 32 standby generators with 2 associated flues per generator (64 in total) and grouped into 16 towers of flour flues each (each 20m high). There are proposed to be 32 acoustically attenuated chillers located on the upper level plant gantries to the north of the data hall blocks (eight on each gantry). The development will also include a new substation with associated transformer yard and single storey transformer building (125sq.m) that will be located to the northeast of the site.
