Data centres – A blooming industry in Norway

Norway is emerging as one of Europe’s most attractive destinations for data centre development – offering vast land availability, stable access to affordable and renewable energy, and a strong technological outlook for the future. With world‑leading green power and a commitment to sustainability, Norway provides an ideal foundation for long‑term, scalable infrastructure.

However, shifting political signals and evolving regulatory frameworks have introduced uncertainties for new data centre initiatives. Ensuring the right legal and strategic guidance from the earliest planning stages is therefore essential.

SANDS’ dedicated data centre team combines deep expertise in real estate, energy, and technology‑driven infrastructure. We have supported several established data centres through their initial development phases – from regulatory assessments to energy contracts. Our multidisciplinary specialists help investors and operators navigate regulatory complexity and secure a smooth and compliant entry into the Norwegian market.

With SANDS as your partner, you gain a team that understands both the commercial opportunities and the legal landscape shaping Norway’s data centre future.
