Kristiansand, Norway – September 6th, 2023 – Bulk Data Centers, the leading provider of ultra-scalable, highly connected, and sustainable data centers in the Nordics, today announced the opening of its second data center at its N01 campus in Southern Norway. The new data center offers a capacity of 12MW and is already nearly fully contracted due to high demand.
Following the success and demand of Bulk’s colocation solutions, the company is starting on the construction of its third data center, as part of its campus expansion plans. The new facility will offer 20MW of IT space, designed to accommodate the latest generation of high-density GPU and CPU infrastructure. It will include air cooling capabilities of up to 100kW+ per rack, as well as direct liquid cooling solutions.
Strengthening Scalability through Strategic Partnerships
Bulk’s strategic partnership with CTS Nordics is a pivotal step in optimising the design and construction development process. This collaboration enables Bulk to deliver on the most demanding timelines while ensuring future scalability. By leveraging the expertise of both organisations, this partnership aims to drive innovative solutions and enhance the overall efficiency of data center infrastructure development.
