Download a FREE PDF Sample of the Report: https://www.arizton.com/request-sample/5157 Established Hubs Continue to Lead While New Markets Gain Momentum South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria, and Egypt continue to attract a significant share of data center investments due to their established connectivity ecosystems, growing digital economies, and rising demand for cloud and colocation services. At the same time, countries such as Morocco and Tunisia are gaining attention due to their proximity to Europe and extensive submarine cable connectivity. As demand for digital infrastructure grows across Africa, these advantages are helping broaden the range of locations being considered for future data center development and investment. Energy Infrastructure Is Strengthening the Foundation for Data Center Growth in Africa Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important consideration in Africa's data center market as operators look to balance rising power demand with long-term energy security. The region's abundant solar, wind, and hydro resources are creating opportunities to support data center growth with cleaner energy sources while helping reduce operating costs. This shift is already visible across the market, with operators securing renewable power agreements and governments expanding investments in renewable energy infrastructure. For instance, Teraco signed a wind energy supply agreement in South Africa in 2025, while Egypt is accelerating large-scale solar and wind projects to increase renewable generation capacity. As power requirements continue to grow, access to reliable and renewable energy is becoming an increasingly important factor in future data center development. Connectivity Infrastructure Is Supporting Africa's Data Center Growth The expansion of submarine cable infrastructure continues to strengthen the foundation for data center growth across Africa. As demand for cloud services, AI workloads, and digital platforms increases, countries are investing in international connectivity to improve network capacity and support rising data traffic. Egypt remains one of the region's most connected markets, with 17 operational submarine cables and six additional systems under development, reinforcing its role as a key gateway linking Africa with Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Kenya is also expanding its connectivity footprint through new submarine cable investments. At the same time, the submarine cable disruptions experienced across West Africa in 2024 have highlighted the importance of network resilience, driving greater focus on cable diversity and redundancy to support future data center investments and digital infrastructure growth across the region.
