Scheduled for late 2027 completion, MAD-3 offers pre-construction pricing advantages and infrastructure customization options that existing facilities cannot match. As part of Iron Mountain's 79MW Madrid campus, MAD-3 customers benefit from the operational connectivity ecosystem already established at MAD-1 and MAD-2 while gaining access to next-generation infrastructure explicitly designed for AI, machine learning, and large enterprise deployments.
The Madrid campus spans 60.000 square meters with a total planned capacity of 79MW. MAD-1 (3MW) is currently operational with MAD-2 (10MW) and MAD-3 (10MW) scheduled for delivery in 2027. The campus master plan includes eight total facilities through 2030, providing a significant growth runway and cross-campus connectivity options for distributed architectures and disaster recovery configurations.
The 5.500 square meter MAD-3 provides 10MW of total IT capacity with two 5MW halls optimized for AI workloads and high-density computing. The facility is part of the 60,000-square-meter Madrid campus, with a total planned capacity of 79MW. MAD-3's modular design enables flexible deployments from single racks to multi-megawatt configurations, with power density support up to 50kW per rack for demanding AI and machine learning applications.
MAD-3 operates under comprehensive security protocols, including 24/7/365 monitoring, biometric access controls, mantrap entry systems, continuous video surveillance, and on-site security personnel. The facility maintains SOC 2 Type II certification along with ISO 27001, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 50001 certifications. Tier III design delivers 99.999% availability with N+1 redundancy across all critical systems.
Yes, MAD-3 is engineered explicitly for AI and machine learning operations. The two 5MW halls feature advanced power distribution and cooling systems designed to support the high-density requirements of AI training, inference, and data-intensive computing. With flexible power density up to 50kW per rack, advanced cooling infrastructure, and purpose-built electrical systems, MAD-3 delivers the performance and reliability demanded by AI workloads while maintaining energy efficiency through low target PUE.
MAD-3 is scheduled for completion in Q4 2027, with pre-construction contracting available now. This timeline provides customers with infrastructure planning certainty and the opportunity to customize facility specifications before construction completion. Pre-construction pricing advantages and design flexibility make early commitment beneficial for organizations planning major infrastructure expansions in the Spain data center market.
