Global AI infrastructure company Nscale plans to establish a new data center in Harjavalta, Finland. The facility is set to be located in the Sievari industrial area, owned by the Town of Harjavalta. The project is supported by Fortum, which will serve as the site development partner.

Fortum signed a site securing and development agreement with Nscale to continue groundwork initiated in 2024. The collaboration includes assistance with zoning, grid connection design, and permitting. Nscale and the Town of Harjavalta have also started the process toward a preliminary land sale for the site.

The total power capacity of the facility will be determined during the design and permitting stages. Both companies stated that the project aligns with efforts to expand low-carbon and high-density infrastructure in the Nordic region. The Town of Harjavalta expects the data center to bring new employment opportunities and economic growth during both construction and operation phases.
