Vertical Data has signed a definitive purchase agreement to acquire an existing 4.5 MW industrial data center site in Central Sweden, with plans to apply for increasing power capacity up to 100 MW to develop a large-scale AI data center powered by renewable hydroelectricity.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of AI Infrastructure, and 2 sources have reported it.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face an opening to use Sweden's renewable-powered grid for AI data centres. Acting quickly could secure subsidised power and local government support before capacity fills up.
