STOCKHOLM, April 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- atNorth the leading Nordic colocation, high-performance computing, and artificial intelligence service provider, has today announced that they have been shortlisted in the 'Data Centre Sustainability Project of the Year' and 'Data Center Cooling Innovation of the Year' categories at the DCS Awards, and the 'Data Center Design & Build' and the 'Green Data Center of the Year' categories at the Electrical Review and Data Center Review Excellence Awards.

Both the DCS Awards and the Electrical Review and Data Centre Review Excellence Awards recognize outstanding products and projects in data center industry innovation that embrace the latest in forward-thinking design and implementation, and champion the highest environmental, safety and energy efficiency standards.

By utilizing atNorth's SWE01 data center, located in Stockholm, Sweden, as an example of a future proof innovative data center, and demonstrating its highly energy efficient and sustainable design they were able to showcase the truly cutting edge nature of the site.

SWE01 is specifically designed for high density workloads, such as advanced calculations for AI, simulations, and risk analysis and is one of the world's first +10mW data centers with a primary cooling system designed for heat recover . This  enables 85% of the electricity used in the DC to be captured and passed on as heat to the district heating system. This residual heat can heat up to 20,000 homes.
