Spain and Portugal are seeing a major data center boom, but grid capacity, network access, and permitting constraints are slowing new project development. The likely effect is a near-term pacing issue for capacity additions despite strong demand, creating modest downside risk to developer timelines and supply. Overall, the story is positive on fundamentals (demand) but cautious due to operational bottlenecks.
