maincubes, one of Europe’s leading developers and operators of data centers, has successfully added sustainability targets to its existing growth financing linking the achievement of these targets to the financing conditions. This is the logical next step for maincubes: the company has been focused on sustainability since its foundation and already uses 100% green electricity.
With this agreement, maincubes continues to drive forward its sustainability strategy and underlines its ambition to be one of the leading companies for the operation and construction of sustainable data centers. With its ambitious annual targets, maincubes aims to increase the energy efficiency of its data centers, reduce the CO2 greenhouse potential of refrigerants and further expand the sustainability training for its employees. By achieving its annual targets, maincubes has the opportunity to improve its financing conditions. In recent years, the company has already established internal processes and continuously developed its specialist knowledge in order to make progress measurable and transparent.
Sustainability also integrated into financing
“The successful addition of the sustainability targets to our financing facility confirms the confidence of our lenders in maincubes’ long-term and sustainable expansion strategy. The ‘Green Loan’ provides us the opportunity to integrate sustainability not only into the operation and construction of our data centers, but also into our financing,” says Arne Weber, CFO of maincubes.
“The sustainability-linked financing is a great success for maincubes and we are pleased that lenders value maincubes’ sustainability ambitions. Achieving the targets will further strengthen maincubes’ positioning. This is also a strong signal to maincubes’ customers, who are increasingly focusing on the sustainability of their data center provider in addition to operational redundancy and high security,” says Waldemar Maurer, Partner at DTCP, the main investor of maincubes.
