    They need to build them outside of Dublin, it's ridiculous the amount in West Dublin alone both mega and small.

    They tried that. All they got was planning objections ... loosing rural Ireland jobs (not many, but still) and infrastructure :) See .. Athenry. Same lad next objected to a datacentre in Dublin, cause ... he ran out of rural datacentre projects to object to.

    He was right though about one thing, for the size of the place the jobs created after initial construction is minimal, permanent jobs even less but I wouldn't have objected to it, west Dublin has turned into a horrible place with all the commercial eyesores with no form of architecture, at least in Athenry they planned to bury the DC in trees.

    Mod Note: Move on from datacentre design and jobs, the impact on the grid and the infrastructure required for them is on topic
