LCL Data Center Créalys - Mons

The Challenge

Expanding a data center requires navigating complex environmental and urban planning regulations, particularly in sensitive or mixed-use zones. The challenge lies in preparing a compliant and complete single permit application (Class 2) that addresses both environmental and spatial planning requirements, while ensuring minimal disruption to the surrounding area and infrastructure.

The Solution

Tractebel supported the client by preparing a comprehensive service offer and managing the application process for the single Class 2 permit. This included coordinating all necessary documentation and ensuring alignment between environmental assessments and urban planning requirements. Tractebel also worked closely with the architect to integrate technical and spatial considerations into a coherent and compliant permit dossier.

The Impact

Thanks to Tractebel’s expertise in permitting and environmental coordination, the client is well-positioned to realize the data center extension efficiently and in full compliance with regulatory frameworks. The project supports digital infrastructure growth while maintaining environmental responsibility and spatial integration, contributing to the region’s technological and economic development.
