German energy company E.ON has signed a 200 MW grid connection agreement with data center operator atNorth to support a new AI data center development in northern Sweden.
The agreement was signed through E.ON’s Swedish electricity distribution subsidiary and will provide large-scale power connectivity for atNorth’s new AI data center campus, which probably is the planned 50 hectare site in Sollefteå, which was announced earlier this year. A 200 MW connection is considered substantial even by hyperscale data center standards and is capable of supporting dense GPU-based AI training and inference clusters.
AtNorth already operates data center campuses in Iceland, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark. The new Swedish AI facility is expected to further intensify competition among Nordic countries seeking to attract hyperscale AI investments as Europe positions itself to capture a larger share of global AI infrastructure deployment.
