Fossefall, which has has partnered with US AI firm Seekr, reportedly wants to develop on the site of the Harpefoss childcare center, which is set to close. Harpefoss is a village in the municipality of Sør-Fron in the center of Norway, some 240 km north of Oslo.
Fossefall launched last year with plans to establish 500MW of “clean” AI infrastructure by 2030. The company aims to develop “AI factories” powered by surplus renewable energy in the Nordics.
