atNorth Announces Shortlist Selection for the National Sustainability Awards
Wednesday, August 2, 2023
REYKJAVÍK, Iceland, July 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- atNorth, a leading Nordic colocation, high-performance computing, and artificial intelligence service provider, has been shortlisted in two categories at this year's National Sustainability Awards.
The 'Building of the Year' shortlisting recognizes the innovative design of atNorth's SWE01 data center that was launched in 2022. The site is one of the world's first large capacity (+10mW) data centers that is specifically designed to cater for high performance computing needs alongside high and low-density workloads with efficiency, performance, and with sustainability at the heart of it's unique design. It accommodates world-class heat capturing technologies including a primary cooling system designed for heat recovery allowing all warm air exhaust from the data center to be recycled in collaboration with Stockholm Exergi, whose local district heating plant can draw the excess heat from the data center to potentially heat up to 20,000 apartments.
The recognition in the `Energy Innovation' category acknowledges atNorth's strategic alliance with CoolIT, the global leader in direct cooling solutions, that gave rise to an innovative and bespoke direct liquid cooling system for their high-density servers which further enhanced the existing infrastructure cooling process and resulted in one of the lowest carbon footprint data centers today.
The news follows the recent publication of atNorth's annual accounts that showed its highest annual revenue to date. As demand for data intensive computing increases, the business is committed to continual expansion and the building of best in class data centers. atNorth now operates six Nordic data centers with a seventh site due to open in Finland in 2024.
"We are always so pleased that the quality and benefits of our solutions continues to be recognized in the industry," says Gisli Kr., Chief Sales Officer, at AtNorth. "As the demand for high performance, sustainable and cost effective digital infrastructure grows, we remain committed to meeting our customers with the best solutions the market has to offer."
