EU’s lowest price on electricity

The data center industry is one of the most electricity intensive sectors in the world and, as the movement towards more cost-effective and sustainable solutions is getting stronger and stronger – the place where you consume your data center power becomes extremely important.

Sweden produces
green electricity

Sweden also has one of the greenest electricity productions in the world when it comes to carbon intensity, how much production coming from fossil free sources as well as how much renewable energy we produce.

Carbon intensity is a measure of the greenhouse gas emissions associated with producing the electricity you consume (in gCO₂eq/kWh – grams of carbon dioxide equivalents emitted per kilowatt hour of electricity consumed).

Low-carbon energy production means that the production involves a very low level of greenhouse gas emissions, such as in nuclear power production. Renewable energy production is based on renewable energy sources such as wind and water, sunshine, and geothermal energy.

Well-educated and
tech savvy workforce

Sweden is one of the most tech savvy and digitized nations in the world. We have a well-educated workforce and a long track record of producing successful companies such as H&M, IKEA and Volvo. Over the recent years Sweden also has shown its ability to deliver new “tech-brands” brands such as Klarna, Spotify and King.

Sweden – the hub for hyperscalers

As a result of all the factors shown above Sweden have become one of the most attractive places for running data centers. Today we have pretty much all the world’s biggest companies already on site or in the process of establishing their presence. We have Facebook up in the north parts, Amazon with three big data centers in Mälardalen, Microsoft currently building in Gävle/Sandviken, Google bought land in Avesta. Sweden is today one of the hottest places to be if you want to run a cost-effective, sustainable and secure data center colocation.
