Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market Size, Share & Forecast to 2035

The Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market is valued at USD 1.01 billion in 2026 and is projected to reach USD 2.34 billion by 2035, up from USD 522.08 million in 2025, a CAGR of 16.18% from 2025 to 2035 (DC Market Insights estimate). Israel data center infrastructure spend is set by one number more than any other: the megawatts the Electricity Authority lets onto the grid. On 15 July 2026 the Electricity Authority froze new grid-connection reviews for server farms of 8 megawatts (MW) and above for about 140 days, after requests reached about 27,000 MW against roughly 1,500 MW already committed (Source: Electricity Authority Decision 74506). DC Market Insights therefore builds the forecast on 1,500 MW of new IT capacity between 2026 and 2035, not on the request queue. The 2025 receipt is 45 MW of new IT capacity × USD 10.01 million per MW = USD 450.45 million of new-build facility spend, plus about 231 MW in service × USD 0.31 million per MW-year = USD 71.63 million of lifecycle work. Lifecycle Services and Upgrades grow fastest at 23.39% a year because the installed base rises from about 274 MW to about 1,681 MW, and the Southern District grows fastest at 29.04% a year because the Negev is where land and transmission capacity for 500 MW-class campuses sit.

The Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market covers the facility layer of Israeli data centers: electrical power infrastructure (medium-voltage switchgear, transformers, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, generators, busway), mechanical and cooling infrastructure, the civil shell and architectural works, racks and white-space fit-out, and lifecycle services and upgrades on halls already in service. Servers, storage, network switches, land, electricity and colocation rent are excluded.

Key Market Statistics: How Big Is the Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market in 2026?

The Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market reaches USD 1.01 billion in 2026, 93.26% above 2025, as the 2026 build year roughly doubles new capacity to 90 MW (DC Market Insights estimate).

• Market leader: Schneider Electric, with about 14% of 2025 spend (DC Market Insights estimate)

Key Takeaways: What Should Buyers of Israel Data Center Infrastructure Know?

• Spend almost doubles in 2026 to USD 1.01 billion because projects contracted before the July 2026 grid freeze, including 80 MW for Nebius at Mega DC sites, enter construction (DC Market Insights estimate).
• Spend peaks at USD 2.64 billion in 2030 and eases to USD 2.07 billion in 2031 because the roughly 1,500 MW of committed grid connections is largely used up by then.
• Racks above 50 kilowatts (kW) rise from 18.0% to 48.0% of value because 70% of new Israeli capacity is built for artificial intelligence (AI) by 2030.
• Underground and hardened halls keep a 20.0% share in 2025 because operators such as MedOne and Oracle build below ground for security, at a shell premium of about 18% (DC Market Insights estimate).

Executive Summary: What Is the Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market Worth from 2020 to 2035?

The Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market size was valued at USD 180.95 million in 2020, reached USD 522.08 million in 2025, and is anticipated to reach USD 2.34 billion by 2035, at a CAGR of 16.18% during the forecast period.

Attribute	Detail
Historical period	2020-2024
Base year	2025
Forecast period	2026-2035
Market size 2025	USD 522.08 million
Market size 2026	USD 1.01 billion
CAGR 2025-2035	16.18%
Market size 2035	USD 2.34 billion

Israel data center infrastructure grew 23.60% a year from 2020 to 2025 as three hyperscale cloud regions opened (Oracle in Jerusalem in October 2021, Google in Tel Aviv in October 2022 and Amazon Web Services (AWS) in August 2023) and installed IT capacity rose from about 112 MW to about 274 MW (DC Market Insights estimate). The next decade is shaped by AI halls: DC Market Insights puts the AI share of new Israeli capacity at 45% in 2025, 70% in 2030 and 72% in 2035, which lifts the blended facility cost from USD 10.01 million per MW in 2025 to USD 12.00 million per MW in 2035.

Market Scope: What Does Israel Data Center Infrastructure Include and Exclude?

Israel data center infrastructure in this edition is facility spend of USD 522.08 million in 2025: the equipment and works that turn a site and a grid connection into a hall ready for IT.

Included: electrical power infrastructure (substation interface, medium-voltage switchgear, transformers, UPS systems, batteries, generators, power distribution and busway); mechanical and cooling infrastructure (chillers, dry coolers, computer-room air handlers, coolant distribution units, direct-to-chip loops, pipework); civil shell and architectural works (structure, underground excavation and hardening, fire suppression, physical security fabric); racks, containment and white-space fit-out; lifecycle services and upgrades (maintenance contracts, UPS battery replacement, cooling retrofits for higher rack density).

Excluded: servers, storage and network switches (IT equipment), data center infrastructure management (DCIM) software, land, electricity, cloud and colocation revenue.

How the segments fit together: every segment table sums to the market total in every year; new-build spend is new MW × cost per MW, and lifecycle spend is prior-year installed MW × USD 0.31 million per MW-year in 2025, rising 2% a year. DCIM software is sized separately in the Israel Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) Market report, and the IT layer sits in the Israel Data Center Market report.

Why Do Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market Estimates Differ?

Estimates for Israel data center infrastructure differ mainly over whether IT equipment is counted: this edition counts only the facility layer, worth USD 1.01 billion in 2026.

Broader definitions add servers, storage, IT and network infrastructure, which is why the previous DC Market Insights edition showed a 2025 value about 60% higher; that figure mixed IT equipment with facility spend. Other definitions count data center construction as a whole, or include DCIM software, edge computing sites and cloud services. Here, the facility layer is separated so that buyers of switchgear, cooling and construction services can size their own share.

Element	In this report	Why
Electrical, mechanical, shell, racks	Yes (86.3% of 2025 value)	Core facility layer
Lifecycle services and upgrades	Yes (13.7% of 2025 value)	Recurring facility spend on halls in service
Servers, storage, network switches	No	IT layer, in the Israel Data Center Market report
DCIM software	No	Separate report
Land, power, rent	No	Operating costs, not infrastructure

In-scope buyers are hyperscale cloud providers, colocation and wholesale operators, AI cloud providers, and enterprises and government bodies that build their own halls, including small and mid-sized enterprises that fit out server rooms of under 1 MW.

Market Drivers: What Is Driving Israel Data Center Infrastructure Spend?

Three drivers push Israel data center infrastructure from USD 522.08 million in 2025 to USD 2.64 billion in 2030: AI cloud contracts, national AI compute policy and the hyperscale regions built for government cloud.

Nebius and Mega DC Put 80 MW of AI Halls into Construction

In January 2026 Mega Or announced that its unit Mega DC will host Nebius at Bnei Reem (22 MW) and Beit Shemesh (58 MW), a deal worth about USD 880 million, or about USD 11 million per MW including services. Nebius already runs 4,000 NVIDIA HGX B200 graphics processing units (GPUs) at a colocation site in Modi’in, as Nebius reported in October 2025. DC Market Insights counts 90 MW of new Israeli IT capacity in 2026, double the 45 MW of 2025, which is why 2026 facility spend reaches USD 1.01 billion.

Government Decision 3907 and the AI Server-Farm Bill Shorten Permitting

On 22 February 2026 the government adopted Decision 3907 to speed AI data center planning, and on 20 May 2026 it published a bill making AI server farms of 50 MW or more national infrastructure, planned by the National Infrastructure Committee at up to 10 plans a year (Source: Planning and Building Law Amendment No. 168 bill, Knesset). The Energy Minister told the cabinet in February 2026 that about 1 gigawatt (GW) of data center capacity was under construction. DC Market Insights expects faster permits to lift new capacity to 175 MW in 2028.

Project Nimbus and the AWS Israel Region Anchor Hyperscale Demand

AWS opened its Israel (Tel Aviv) region with 3 Availability Zones in August 2023 and plans to invest about USD 7.2 billion (about NIS 26.6 billion) in Israel through 2037 (Source: Amazon, August 2023). AWS and Google were selected as public cloud providers for Project Nimbus, the government cloud tender (Source: Government Procurement Administration). Hyperscale and AI campuses rise from 38.0% of 2025 Israel data center infrastructure value to 52.0% in 2035, growing 19.88% a year.

Market Trends: How Are Israeli Data Center Designs Changing?

Two design trends reshape Israel data center infrastructure: liquid-cooled AI halls and underground construction, together moving the mechanical share of new-build spend from 30% in 2025 to 34% in 2035.

Halls Above 50 kW per Rack Move to Liquid Cooling

The national supercomputer that Nebius builds for the Israel Innovation Authority, a project of more than NIS 500 million including NIS 160 million of government support, uses NVIDIA Blackwell systems that need liquid cooling (Source: Israel Innovation Authority, May 2025). DC Market Insights estimates that racks above 50 kW grow 28.15% a year, from 18.0% of 2025 value to 48.0% in 2035.

MedOne Builds Underground, from Ramla to Dimona

MedOne lists more than 90 MW of current and planned capacity in underground sites, including Ramla RM1 at 10.5 MW of IT load ready in the first quarter of 2025, Tirat Carmel TC3 and TC4 at 32 megavolt-amperes (MVA) each due in 2027 and 2028, and two 15 MW buildings in Dimona delivered 36 months from purchase order (Source: MedOne data center list). Underground and hardened facilities hold 20.0% of 2025 value and grow 12.11% a year, because excavation adds about 18% to shell cost per MW (DC Market Insights estimate).

Market Challenges and Restraints: What Holds Back Israel Data Center Infrastructure?

Grid capacity is the binding limit on Israel data center infrastructure: about 1,500 MW of committed connections against about 27,000 MW of requests caps new-build spend after 2030.

The Electricity Authority Freeze on 8 MW-Plus Connections

The Electricity Authority froze reviews of new server-farm connections of 8 MW and above from 20 July to 7 December 2026, after an existing backlog of about 8,000 MW was joined by about 19,000 MW of new requests (Source: Electricity Authority Decision 74506, 15 July 2026). Its June 2026 hearing also proposed curtailable supply for consumers of 50 MVA and above, under which the system operator could withhold power for 100 to 200 hours a year. DC Market Insights sees new capacity fall from 210 MW in 2030 to 150 MW in 2031, and the market from USD 2.64 billion to USD 2.07 billion, as committed connections run out.

Peak Tariffs and Transmission Delays Raise Cost per MW

The Electricity Authority tariff book of July 2026 sets high-voltage time-of-use energy at 29.73 agorot per kilowatt-hour (kWh) in winter off-peak hours and 133.13 agorot in summer peak hours, a 4.5-fold spread that pushes operators to add on-site storage and generation (Source: Electricity Authority tariff book). The Electricity Authority also reported that about 80% of transmission projects run behind schedule. DC Market Insights lifts the blended cost per MW from USD 10.01 million in 2025 to USD 11.19 million in 2030, partly for storage and backup that cover peak-hour tariffs.

Market Opportunities: Where Are the New Israel Data Center Infrastructure Contracts?

The two largest openings in Israel data center infrastructure are Negev campuses and lifecycle work on the installed base, which together grow from 20.7% of 2025 value to 45.1% in 2035 (the two overlap in part).

Negev Campuses: Beersheba, Kiryat Gat and Dimona

Grid requests filed with Noga, the system operator, include 500 MW projects each at Beersheba, Kiryat Gat and Lehavim, as reported by the developers in August 2026, and the United States and Israel signed a non-binding declaration in January 2026 for an AI park in the south on 16,000 dunams. DC Market Insights puts the Southern District at 20.0% of Israel data center infrastructure value in 2035, up from 7.0% in 2025, a 12.8-fold rise in spend.

Retrofits and Lifecycle Contracts on 274 MW in Service

Israeli halls in service reach about 1,062 MW by 2030 and about 1,681 MW by 2035 (DC Market Insights estimate), and each needs maintenance, UPS battery replacement every 5 to 8 years and cooling retrofits as rack density rises. Lifecycle Services and Upgrades rise from 13.7% of value in 2025 to 25.1% in 2035, growing 23.39% a year, and become steady work once new-build volumes flatten after 2030.

Pricing Analysis: How Much Does Israel Data Center Infrastructure Cost per MW?

Israel data center infrastructure cost USD 10.01 million per MW of IT capacity in 2025, blending USD 9.20 million for conventional halls and USD 11.00 million for AI halls (DC Market Insights estimate).

Year	Conventional hall (USD million per MW)	AI hall (USD million per MW)	AI share of new MW	Blended (USD million per MW)	Lifecycle (USD million per MW-year)
2020	8.41	10.36	8%	8.57	0.281
2025	9.20	11.00	45%	10.01	0.310
2030	10.06	11.68	70%	11.19	0.342
2035	11.00	12.39	72%	12.00	0.378

Public anchors fit this band: NED and Levinstein put their 42 MW Netanya campus, built by Electra, at about NIS 1.3 billion when construction began in April 2025, about NIS 31 million (about USD 8.5 million) per MW; reports on the second NVIDIA hall at Mevo Carmel put infrastructure at about NIS 1.5 billion for about 64 MW, about USD 6.5 million per MW for shell and services.

Regulation and Standards: Which Rules Shape Israel Data Center Infrastructure?

Five rules shape Israel data center infrastructure, and the most important, Electricity Authority Decision 74506, governs access to about 27,000 MW of requested grid capacity.

Above-Ground Facilities	417.66	80.0%	2,011.05	17.02%
Underground and Hardened Facilities	104.42	20.0%	327.38	12.11%

DC Exclusive: The Israeli Hall Cost Teardown, Conventional vs AI vs Underground

The Israeli Hall Cost Teardown is a DC Market Insights estimate built on 9 inputs; it shows that an underground AI hall costs about USD 11.99 million per MW in 2025, 30% more than a conventional above-ground hall at USD 9.20 million.

Line item (USD million per MW, 2025)	Conventional above-ground	AI above-ground	AI underground
Electrical power (switchgear, transformers, UPS, generators)	4.05	4.62	4.62
Mechanical and cooling	2.66	3.58	3.58
Civil shell and architecture	2.03	2.20	2.60
Racks and white-space fit-out	0.46	0.60	0.60
Hardening, blast and protected-space works	0.00	0.00	0.59
Total	9.20	11.00	11.99

Inputs: the DC Market Insights unit costs of USD 9.20 million (conventional) and USD 11.00 million (AI) per MW, the 45% AI share of 2025 new capacity, the NED Netanya budget (NIS 1.3 billion for 42 MW), the Mega DC and Nebius deal (USD 880 million for 80 MW), the Mevo Carmel infrastructure budget (NIS 1.5 billion for 64 MW), the MedOne underground site list, the July 2026 Electricity Authority tariff book and an 18% shell premium for excavation. A 20 MW underground AI hall therefore needs about USD 240 million of infrastructure, against USD 184 million for a conventional above-ground hall.

Regional Insights: Which Israeli District Leads Data Center Infrastructure Spend?

The Central District leads Israel data center infrastructure with 58.0% of 2025 value, and the Southern District grows fastest at 29.04% a year as Negev campuses come online.

District	2025 (USD million)	Share 2025	2035 (USD million)	CAGR 2025-2035
Central District	302.81	58.0%	935.37	11.94%
Northern District	73.09	14.0%	327.38	16.18%
Haifa District	46.99	9.0%	327.38	21.42%
Jerusalem District	62.65	12.0%	280.61	16.18%
Southern District	36.55	7.0%	467.69	29.04%

Central District (incl. Tel Aviv)

The Central District holds Petah Tikva, Rishon LeZion, Modi’in, Netanya and Ramla, where EdgeConneX lists sites of 6.6 MW and 7.5 MW and plans 48.4 MW at Neve Yamin, according to its Tel Aviv data sheet. Its share falls from 58.0% to 40.0% by 2035 because land and grid capacity near Tel Aviv are scarce.

Northern District

The Northern District is led by Yokneam and Mevo Carmel, where NVIDIA runs AI halls of about 30 MW and about 64 MW for its own research, and grows 16.18% a year.

Haifa District

The Haifa District grows 21.42% a year, driven by Hadera, where Mega Or requested about 1,111 MW of grid capacity, and by MedOne’s Tirat Carmel expansions of 32 MVA each.

Jerusalem District

The Jerusalem District holds 12.0% of 2025 value, from the Oracle Jerusalem cloud region and the 58 MW Beit Shemesh hall that Mega DC builds for Nebius between the third quarter of 2026 and the first quarter of 2027.

Southern District

The Southern District rises from 7.0% to 20.0% of value by 2035, the fastest district at 29.04% a year, because MedOne Dimona and the 500 MW-class Negev requests sit on land with room for transmission.

Locality Analysis: Which Israeli Cities Lead Data Center Infrastructure Spend?

Yokneam and Mevo Carmel lead Israel data center infrastructure spend with 14.0% of 2025 value, and the Negev grows fastest among the 12 localities at 29.04% a year.

Rank	Locality	District	2025 (USD million)	2035 (USD million)	CAGR 2025-2035
1	Yokneam and Mevo Carmel	Northern	73.09	327.38	16.18%
2	Petah Tikva	Central	72.67	187.07	9.92%

11	Beit Shemesh	Jerusalem	28.19	168.37	19.57%
12	Hadera	Haifa	14.10	180.06	29.01%

Hadera is the fastest large locality outside the Negev at 29.01% a year, because its grid requests are the largest single block filed with Noga; Tel Aviv-Yafo grows slowest at 8.02% as older enterprise halls are retired.

Forecast Scenarios: How Could the Israel Data Center Infrastructure Market Change by 2035?

Israel data center infrastructure reaches between USD 1.75 billion and USD 2.96 billion in 2035, around a base case of USD 2.34 billion (DC Market Insights estimate).

Scenario	2035 (USD million)	CAGR 2025-2035	Assumption

Electra is the main contractor at the 42 MW NED Netanya campus, according to NED. Equipment share estimates are DC Market Insights estimates; Schneider Electric, Vertiv and ABB do not report Israeli revenue separately.

Recent Developments: What Changed in Israel Data Center Infrastructure in 2025 and 2026?

Six events between April 2025 and August 2026 changed the Israel data center infrastructure outlook, led by the July 2026 grid freeze.

• In April 2025, NED and Levinstein began construction of a 42 MW, NIS 1.3 billion campus in Netanya, with the first hall due in early 2027 (Source: NED and Levinstein).
• In May 2025, the Israel Innovation Authority selected Nebius to build the national supercomputer, a project of more than NIS 500 million (Source: Israel Innovation Authority).
• In January 2026, Mega Or announced 80 MW of halls for Nebius at Bnei Reem and Beit Shemesh, worth about USD 880 million (Source: Mega Or).
• In May 2026, the government published the bill making AI server farms of 50 MW or more national infrastructure (Source: Knesset).
• In July 2026, the Electricity Authority froze new connection reviews for server farms of 8 MW and above for about 140 days (Source: Electricity Authority).
• In August 2026, Noga reported about 100 data center connection requests, including 500 MW-class projects in Beersheba and Kiryat Gat (Source: Noga).

Research Methodology: How the Model Sizes Israel Data Center Infrastructure

DC Market Insights sizes Israel data center infrastructure bottom-up from 16 years of new IT capacity (188 MW from 2020 to 2025 and 1,500 MW from 2026 to 2035), two hall types, 5 districts and 12 localities, with 25 dated facts in the source ledger.

The receipt for 2025: 45 MW × USD 10.01 million per MW = USD 450.45 million, plus about 231 MW in service × USD 0.31 million = USD 71.63 million, for USD 522.08 million. Capacity matches the Israel Data Center Market model; unit costs match the Middle East Data Center Infrastructure Market model, so Israel can be read against the region and against the Data Center Infrastructure Market worldwide.

Three bound checks: (1) ceiling: 1,500 MW of new capacity in 2026-2035 equals the roughly 1,500 MW of committed grid connections; (2) ceiling: that capacity is 5.6% of the roughly 27,000 MW requested; (3) floor: named projects for 2026-2027 (Mega DC 80 MW, NED 42 MW, MedOne Ramla RM2 and Tirat Carmel) need about USD 1.30 billion of facility work, below the model’s USD 2.39 billion of new-build spend for those two years.
