Scotland’s Only Fully Diverse, Dual-Fed Powered Data Centre at Heart of Renewed Agreement to Benefit Public and Private Sector Customers
London, United Kingdom – March 11, 2025
Atos, a Global Digital Service provider, and Asanti Datacentres Ltd, a leading UK data centre provider, announced today a long-term rolling extension of their strategic partnership, building on the initial 2022 agreement. This new agreement significantly increases Asanti’s capacity within the Atos Livingston data centre, adding additional capacity to its UK footprint.
The Livingston data centre is Scotland’s only dual-fed power-supplied data centre, providing fully independent, diverse high-voltage supplies to all racks, including Transformer, Switchboard, and UPS systems. With the capability to achieve Tier III compliance and a low PUE of 1.67, it offers a highly secure and energy-efficient environment for mission-critical IT services.
“This partnership ensures Asanti can continue to provide critical, resilient and reliable data centre infrastructure solutions,” commented Mike Astle, Head of Service and Delivery at Atos UK&I. “With the growing demand for secure and high-performance IT environments, our Livingston facility is well-positioned to support Asanti in delivering cutting-edge solutions to the Scottish market customers. We are committed to providing the highest levels of availability and reliability, ensuring organisations can operate without disruption and with confidence in their digital future.”
Stewart Laing, CEO of Asanti Data Centres Limited, added, “This enhanced, long-term agreement with Atos not only reinforces our long-standing partnership but also unlocks exciting new business opportunities. The Atos Livingston data centre is Scotland’s most resilient, secure and energy-efficient data centre, offering the only fully independent, diverse dual-fed power supply to all racks. Our partnership guarantees the highest level of power resilience for customers across both the public and private sectors, meeting the growing demand for scalable and secure colocation and cloud solutions.”
The Atos Livingston data centre, paired with Asanti’s Hamilton data centre, provides an ideal solution for local disaster recovery requirements. It creates a highly robust and geographically diverse solution for customers, particularly in finance and healthcare, as well as public sector organisations seeking enterprise-grade colocation-specific or hybrid cloud services solutions.
This continued partnership underscores Atos and Asanti’s shared commitment to providing best-in-class data centre solutions, reinforcing their ability to support digital transformation across the public and private sectors in Scotland and beyond.”
