CapMan buys data centre in Öjebyn

Öjebyn CapMan Infra is buying three data centres from EcoDataCenter, including one in Öjebyn in Piteå municipality.

Through the acquisition of two data centres in Stockholm and one in Öjebyn, Finnish-owned CapMan Infra wants to expand its data operations to Sweden.

“I am excited to welcome these three data centers into our expanding platform. Their advanced capabilities, particularly in supporting AI workloads, position us to serve a rapidly growing market demand. This strategic expansion strengthens our presence in the Nordic region and offers our existing and prospective clients cutting-edge infrastructure to advance their AI initiatives,” says Maria Sundvall, CEO at CapMan Infra’s Datacenter Platform.

"The Piteå data centre, in particular, offers a cold climate, low total cost of ownership, and proximity to renewable energy sources, making it ideal for AI customers seeking sustainable and cost-effective solutions," the company says in a press release.

CapMan Infra is building a Northern European platform. The platform now operates data centres in the Netherlands and Denmark. The purchase of data centres in Sweden is expected to be completed in the second quarter.

Finnish-owned CapMan is a fund manager, listed on the Helsinki Stock Exchange. Its subsidiary CapMan Infra has offices in Helsinki and Stockholm.

EcoDataCenter is a Swedish company that has operated data centres since 2019.
