Bitdeer Technologies Group, a technology company for AI and Bitcoin mining infrastructure, announced its subsidiary Tydal Data Center AS (TDC) has entered into an agreement with Data Center Installations AS (DCI), a Norwegian data center and critical infrastructure specialized contractor, to develop and convert the facility into a 180 MW AI data center.
Under this agreement, DCI will develop and convert the TDC facility into an AI data center primarily for co-location of the latest Nvidia Vera Rubin AI technology. The project will deliver 180 MW of gross installed capacity with an anticipated completion date of December 2026. TDC facility will be built primarily for co-location use according to the Nvidia reference design. Upon completion, the Tydal facility is expected to be Norway’s largest operational AI data center and one of the largest in Europe by installed capacity.
“The transformation of our Tydal facility is a cornerstone of Bitdeer's global strategy to meet the explosive demand for AI data centers,” said Haakon Bryhni, Chairman and co-founder of TDC. “By transforming our existing footprint to large AI deployments, TDC will be at the forefront of the AI revolution while maintaining sustainable, capital-efficient growth and substantial local value creation. DCI’s track record shows its ability to deliver according to our high execution standards.”
“The size of the project and the execution model provide strong predictability and close control over both costs and progress,” said Bjørn Arve Olsen, Co-Founder at DCI. “At the same time, this represents a significant milestone for DCI, both financially and operationally.”
