Aker Nscale has entered into an agreement with Løvenskiold-Fossum Kraft Drift to develop a 96MW data center in Skien, Norway. The company aims to establish a data center capable of supporting AI workloads and has applied for grid capacity from Statnett.
Leopold Løvenskiold, the general manager and owner of Løvenskiold-Fossum, said: "We believe the data center will attract new, attractive labor and be an important contributor to immigration and value creation in the region. This is a new milestone in the industrial development of Løvenskiold-Fossum."
Løvenskiold-Fossum manages 330,000 acres of forest property, and under its "Kraft" business operates several small power plants.
