About Nordavind

The purpose of Nordavind DC Sites AS is to ease investment in sustainable data centers. Our data center sites are located in the eastern part of Norway in Innlandet county.

The DC development company is a joint venture. Power suppliers, fibre providers, local government and landowners join forces to offer the best possible locations for data centers. Our ambition is to be a single contact point for our customers.

Nordavind Data Center Sites offers shovel-ready sites for medium-sized and hyperscale data centers. We deliver access to inexpensive and renewable hydropower for data-dependent companies. As a result we provide them with the best data center sites in Norway.

Our philosophy is to be the single point of contact you need to assess and establish data centers in the eastern part of Norway. We represent experience in power, grid, fibre, land, construction, regulations, taxes and necessary applications to build and operate sustainable data centers.
