Norway is emerging as a key hub in the Nordic data center market, accounting for over 48% of regional data center investments in 2024. Its appeal lies in strong government support, advanced digital infrastructure, access to renewable energy, and a natural climate ideal for free cooling. Global operators and cloud providers are heavily investing in the country, fueling rapid development across multiple cities.

Significant investments in 2024 include BentallGreenOak's $380 million infusion into Bulk Infrastructure Group AS and CoreWeave's $2.2 billion expansion across Norway, Sweden, and Spain. Norway is also seeing technological innovation with companies like AQ Compute introducing liquid cooling technologies in expanded data center campuses and AWS rolling out hybrid cooling systems to manage AI workloads. Schneider Electric, Vertiv, Lenovo, and others are introducing advanced liquid cooling systems to support next-gen AI processors like Nvidia's GB200 and Blackwell platforms.

The growth of AI and cloud adoption is accelerating demand for AI-ready infrastructure. Cloud giants including AWS, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, IBM, and Huawei are expanding their presence, while local players like Telenor Group and Nscale are investing in sovereign cloud services and modular, sustainable data centers powered by 100% renewable energy.

Norway's connectivity advantage is enhanced by over 13 existing undersea cables and three upcoming ones, further linking it to the UK, Netherlands, Germany, Sweden, and Denmark. Projects like the IOEMA subsea cable will boost the nation's role in global data exchange.

As AI, digital transformation, and sustainable infrastructure drive the future of data centers, Norway positions itself at the forefront of innovation and investment in the Nordic region.

Cloud Adoption Accelerates in Norway, Driving Demand for Data Center Expansion

Norway is experiencing a rapid surge in cloud adoption as businesses and public institutions across industries-such as finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and telecommunications-embrace digital transformation to boost scalability, accessibility, and efficiency. Backed by the government's Cloud Computing Strategy, which encourages secure, flexible, and sustainable cloud solutions, the country is positioning itself as a regional leader in cloud innovation.

As global demand for secure, scalable cloud infrastructure surges, Norway is fast emerging as a strategic hub. Tech giants are taking notice-Google has announced plans to expand its Google Cloud Platform in the country by 2026, while Telenor Group is investing over $9.4 million into a sovereign cloud strategy in collaboration with AWS and Skygard.
