Holbæk to Develop One of the Nordics' Largest Hyperscale Data Centers Amid Green Energy Demand
DATA AND AI INFRASTRUCTURE
Energinet is under pressure to enhance green energy infrastructure to meet the rising demand from large data centers. A new hyperscale data center is planned in Holbæk, covering 150,000 square meters and housing hundreds of thousands of servers for AI, social media, and streaming services.
The mayor, Christina Krzyrosiak Hansen, supports the project for its potential job creation. The municipal council is drafting a local plan, and with this plan, developer EMCH will negotiate with international data center operators to secure users. The center may be operational in five to six years.
