Expansion at Enebakk campus
The company announced that it has received approval for the construction of a 3-story, 9,600 sqm building at its Enebakk campus. The new building will be almost identical to the already existing co-location building said the company this week. The building is already partially leased to a new large international customer, whose name has not been disclosed publicly.
Construction on the 10 MW facility will commence as soon as the start-up permit has been received, and completion is expected in September 2024. Upon the completion of construction, the entire Green Mountain facility in Enebakk will reportedly have a capacity of 41.5 MW.

"We are currently experiencing great demand and it is gratifying that more international customers are looking to the Nordics for their data centre needs," says Green Mountain.
International Customer
Upon completion, Green Mountain will accommodate both dedicated buildings for its own customers and buildings for the co-location of several customers. The company did not disclose the name of the customer but mentioned as a new customer and an international technology player that will utilise almost 5 MW of the capacity for its business.
"They provide services that the vast majority of Norwegians are well familiar with and that many depend on both at work and in their free time," adds Green Mountain.
