SERBAN Scales AI-Ready Data Centers with EPC+ and Commissioning

Press Release / April 2026

Through its advanced MEP engineering capabilities, SERBAN delivers highly efficient power, cooling, and automation systems tailored to AI-ready facilities.

As AI, cloud computing, and digital transformation accelerate worldwide, demand for highly reliable and scalable data center infrastructure is growing rapidly. Meeting these new high-density requirements takes more than traditional construction; it calls for a fusion of advanced engineering and integrated project delivery.

Engineering the AI Revolution

AI-driven workloads and rising energy demands are fundamentally reshaping how data centers are designed and operated. SERBAN is meeting this challenge with integrated solutions that combine engineering, project management, and advanced testing and commissioning (T&C) services within a single, cohesive delivery framework.

By managing the entire lifecycle, from initial design to operational readiness, SERBAN enables investors to deploy mission-critical facilities with complete operational confidence. To date, the company has contributed to the delivery of more than 120 MW of data center capacity across multiple international markets.

The EPC+ Advantage: Beyond Construction

At the core of SERBAN’s success is its EPC+ delivery model. This approach goes beyond traditional engineering, procurement, and construction by integrating:

• Investment and financial advisory: Strategic guidance for scaling infrastructure
• Energy and automation: A specialized focus on high-density power and automation systems
• Rigorous T&C programs: Multi-layered methodologies that validate performance under real-world, 24/7 mission-critical conditions

A Global Footprint of Excellence

SERBAN’s expertise is demonstrated through high-profile projects across Europe, the Middle East, and Türkiye:

• Germany: As general planner for the Green Data Center project, SERBAN is coordinating all engineering disciplines to deliver sustainable digital infrastructure in hubs such as Frankfurt, Berlin, and Munich.
• Saudi Arabia: SERBAN is delivering a multi-phase Tier III facility targeting LEED Gold certification, showcasing its expertise in complex hybrid steel and concrete structures.
• Türkiye: SERBAN has a proven track record with flagship facilities, including the Turkcell Europe, Gebze, and Ankara data centers, as well as the Vodafone and DAMAC project in Izmir.

In addition to its current projects, SERBAN is actively expanding its pipeline into new strategic markets, including Africa, Greece, Spain, and Azerbaijan. These regions offer significant growth opportunities not only for digital infrastructure investment but also for the manufacturing companies operating under the Açık Holding umbrella.

By leveraging its integrated EPC+ capabilities, SERBAN aims to support the development of next-generation data center ecosystems in these markets while strengthening the group’s broader industrial value chain.

Future-Proofing Digital Infrastructure

“Next-generation data centers require increasingly sophisticated engineering solutions and resilient power infrastructure to support AI workloads,” the company stated. Looking ahead, SERBAN is also targeting the modernization of legacy facilities, particularly in the UK and Ireland, where demand for AI-ready upgrades is surging.

With its robust engineering expertise and holistic EPC+ approach, SERBAN continues to play a pivotal role in supporting the global expansion of future-ready digital infrastructure.

SERBAN also brings strong expertise in next-generation data center modularization, enabling faster deployment, greater scalability, and improved quality control for high-density digital infrastructure projects.

Through its advanced MEP engineering capabilities, the company delivers highly efficient power, cooling, and automation systems tailored to AI-ready facilities.

Complementing these technical strengths, SERBAN places strong emphasis on health and safety management, applying rigorous international standards to ensure safe execution across all project phases while maintaining operational reliability in mission-critical environments.
