Bulgaria IBX Data Centers · Transition modelFACILITY

The Sofia, Bulgaria IBX data centre depends primarily on grid electricity, drawing power at a 2025 observed carbon intensity of 275.55 gCO2/kWh (Ember Yearly Electricity 2025) for BG, which drives its dominant Scope 2 GHG impact. The site sits in the Danube watershed (ex 643-647) with a Low baseline water stress score (0, <10%) and a Low-Medium overall water risk score of 1.64, though the untreated wastewater score of 2.29 and drought score of 2.83 flag localized pressure points worth monitoring. Riverine flood exposure is modest (0.92) and coastal flood and water depletion scores are negligible (0 and 0.06 respectively).

No 2030 horizon values are populated for either water stress/depletion or grid carbon intensity, so the site's near-term trajectory cannot be quantified from the dataset as provided. Analysts should treat the current low-water-stress, ~275 gCO2/kWh grid baseline as the best available reference point until horizon-specific projections are populated.

Beyond 2050, no horizon data exists for either the BG grid emissions factor or water stress/depletion at this site, so the long-term decarbonisation trajectory and residual physical risk cannot be characterized from current data. Given Bulgaria's EU grid trajectory and low current baseline water stress, directional expectation is for continued grid decarbonisation and stable-to-low water risk, but this is inference, not data-backed projection; horizon data acquisition should be prioritized for this site.
