Dublin, May 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Norway Data Center Market – Investment Analysis & Growth Opportunities 2026-2031” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The Norway data center market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 28.30% from 2025 to 2031.
Norway is one of the developing data center hubs in the Nordic region, hosting around 30 existing data center facilities. Oslo consists of around 17 existing data centers. Green Mountain, STACK Infrastructure, and Bulk Infrastructure are the major providers in the country.
The country consists of around 13 existing submarine cables, such as Bodo-Rost Cable, Eviny Digital, Havsil, NOr5ke Viking, NO-UK, Norfest, Polar Circle Cable, Skagenfiber West, Svalbard Undersea Cable System, and Tverrlinken, which connect Norway with other European countries such as the UK, Denmark, Sweden, and Ireland. For instance, in January 2026, Space Norway partnered with the Norwegian Ministry of Defence to develop the first cable landing station on Jan Mayen for the Arctic Way subsea system. The cable, spanning 1,460.2 miles and manufactured by SubCom, will connect mainland Norway with Jan Mayen and Svalbard by 2028.
Norway is significantly adopting renewable energy for data center operations owing to the presence of abundant natural renewable resources. For instance, in February 2026, Green Mountain launched a heat reuse project at its RJU1 site in Rjukan, supplying excess heat to the nearby trout farm of Hima Seafood. The closed-loop system currently operates at 1.75 MW and is planned to scale to 8 MW, improving energy efficiency and reducing environmental impact.
A traditional data center can host racks with power densities ranging from 5 kW to 8 kW, which are insufficient to support AI workloads efficiently. Therefore, data center operators are installing advanced racks, which offer higher densities to support Artificial Intelligence (AI) and High-Performance Computing (HPC) workloads. For instance, in May 2025, Bulk Infrastructure added three new data halls at the OS-IX facility in Oslo, doubling the site’s total capacity to 14 MW and introducing multi-density rack configurations. The expansion delivers rack power ranges from the 3 kW to 4 kW rating to the 40 kW to 50 kW rating per rack, enabling support for both enterprise and high-density workloads in a centrally located metro data center.
The demand for wholesale colocation services is anticipated to grow significantly, fueled by the increasing adoption of cloud technologies among enterprises in Norway. As of 2025, wholesale colocation represented roughly 92.0% of total colocation revenue, a share that is expected to surpass 94.6% by 2031.
