Pure Data Centres Group's Yas Island campus in Abu Dhabi, branded AUH01, is designed as a 48 MW site, with its first building — 20 MW across four data halls — completed on schedule and handed over to a hyperscale customer in 2025. The 16-acre campus uses hybrid air and liquid cooling, which the UK-headquartered operator positions specifically for AI and cloud workloads, and reports an average annualized PUE of 1.38 on a closed-loop cooling system. A second building is planned to bring the site to its full 48 MW design capacity, though Pure DC has not disclosed a timeline for that expansion beyond describing it as part of a phased build-out. The Yas Island site is Pure DC's first facility in the Middle East and sits alongside a broader pipeline the company is developing in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (tracked separately in this catalog), as part of a wider 2024–2026 push into Gulf markets. No street address, Tier certification, or rack count is published for the facility beyond the figures above, and the building's exact area is reported at the campus level rather than per building.
