EdgeConneX planerar etablering i Sverige som del av europeisk expansionsstrategi för datacenter
27.2.2026 08:05:00 CET | Business Wire | Pressmeddelande
EdgeConneX®, ett EQT-portföljbolag med en omfattande plattform av datacenter i Europa, planerar att etablera sig i Sverige genom en ny satsning i Skellefteå. Datacenter-tomten kommer att förvärvas från Lyten, ett globalt bolag specialiserat på litium-svavelbatterier och energilagring.
Etableringen är en del av EdgeConneX övergripande strategi att stärka den digitala infrastrukturen i Norden. Förutsatt att nödvändiga tillstånd beviljas och att de regulatoriska processerna får ett positivt utfall, planerar bolaget att utveckla ett datacenter-campus med en möjlig kapacitet på upp till en gigawatt, för att möta den växande efterfrågan på AI- och molntjänster. Vid full utbyggnad skulle anläggningen bli ett av Europas största datacenter som i huvudsak använder förnybar energi.
“Sverige är en attraktiv marknad för långsiktiga investeringar inom digital infrastruktur. Tillgången till förnybar energi, ett stabilt elsystem, teknisk kompetens och ett starkt fokus på hållbarhet ligger väl i linje med vår syn på långsiktig infrastrukturutveckling. Som med alla våra projekt kommer hållbarhet vara en integrerad del av datacentret i takt med att det utvecklas, samtidigt som att vi fokuserar på att möta det ökande behovet från AI- och molnkunder.” säger Dick Theunissen, Managing Director EMEA, EdgeConneX.
“EQT är stolt över att stödja EdgeConneX etablering i Sverige – vår hemmamarknad. Investeringen ligger i linje med vårt långsiktiga fokus på robust och samhällsviktig infrastruktur som kan stärka Europas digitala konkurrenskraft. På sikt tror vi att datacentret i Skellefteå kan bidra till att stärka Sveriges digitala konkurrenskraft och positionera landet i framkant inom AI-teknik i Europa. Vi ser fram emot att arbeta tillsammans med EdgeConneX, Skellefteå kommun och andra lokala aktörer för att skapa ett långsiktigt och konstruktivt samarbete som bidrar till hållbar utveckling i regionen.” säger Eirik Dahle Benzon, Managing Director, EQT.
“Vi välkomnar EdgeConneX, en global aktör vars investering stärker Skellefteå som en hub för innovation och digital utveckling. Vi ser fram emot ett nära samarbete för att stödja en utveckling som gynnar både det lokala samhället och den bredare samhällsomställningen.” säger Kristina Sundin Jonsson, Kommundirektör, Skellefteå Kommun.
