Microsoft has released details of a planned data center development in Langley, a village in Berkshire, England, adding another site to its ongoing UK expansion. The Langley project follows Microsoft's broader commitment to European infrastructure investment announced earlier in 2026. Specific capacity figures and a construction timeline were included in the filing reviewed by Data Center Dynamics.
Microsoft's continued UK buildout reflects sustained hyperscaler demand for European capacity at a time when planning approvals and grid connections remain constrained across the region. The Langley site adds geographic diversity to Microsoft's UK footprint beyond its existing Hertfordshire and Dublin campuses.
Named company Microsoft, a specific named location (Langley, UK), and a formal planning detail announcement triggered selection. This is a distinct new site announcement not covered in previously published stories.
