RED Engineering Design

RED Engineering Design, a company of Tractebel, is a global engineering consultancy specialising in the design of complex, mission-critical Data Centre and digital infrastructure environments. For more than two decades, we have been at the forefront of Data Centre engineering - delivering high-performance, energy-efficient and future-ready facilities that power the digital economy. From hyperscale AI campuses to enterprise mission-critical environments, RED designs the infrastructure that enables global connectivity, compute, and intelligence at scale. Today, as artificial intelligence, cloud computing and high-density digital workloads accelerate, the role of infrastructure has fundamentally changed. Data Centres are no longer passive facilities - they are active energy systems, computing ecosystems, and critical enablers of economic growth. RED exists at the centre of this transformation. We combine deep engineering expertise with advanced digital design capability to deliver resilient, scalable and sustainable infrastructure across the full lifecycle - from strategy and feasibility through to design, construction, commissioning and operational optimisation. Our team of over 1,000 specialists operates across Europe, the Middle East, and APAC, supporting clients in delivering some of the world’s most complex and high-density digital infrastructure projects. Since 2017, RED has masterplanned more than 50GW of Data Centre capacity globally, with approximately 20GW currently in active planning and design (2026). Our project footprint spans over 31 countries, with more than 1,100 Data Centre projects delivered to date.
