Nordic colocation firm atNorth has announced plans to build a 250MW data center in the town of Ølgod, Denmark.
Located in the city of Varde, the site - dubbed DEN02 - will span 176 hectares. Other specifications have not been shared.
The project is expected to be complete by the end of 2026.
The company added the facility will be designed to offer colocation services for hyperscalers and companies using AI and high-performance computing workloads.
“Our DEN02 site is truly a blueprint for future data centers. The highly energy-efficient design, including its state-of-the-art heat reuse technologies, coupled with the advantageous location in Denmark and our dedication to sustainability, exemplifies innovation in our industry,” said Eyjolfur manus Kristinsson, CEO of atNorth.
The Nordic operator has already signed a collaboration agreement with Wa3rm, a specialist in the development of circular and bio-based operations for waste streams.
The partnership will enable the recycling of excess heat from the new campus for use in large-scale greenhouses for vegetable production.
atNorth has another site under construction in Denmark, located near Ballerup, with an expected capacity of 30MW. DEN01 is expected to launch in Q2 2025.
Headquartered in Reykjavik, Iceland, atNorth currently operates seven data centers across Sweden, Iceland, and Finland, with another Finnish site currently under construction.
