Norway’s Green Mountain data centre uses 8°C fjord water to cool its servers, turning a naturally cold resource into free refrigeration

Green Mountain employs natural cooling at Norwegian data centres, using cold fjord water and ambient air. This approach significantly reduces the energy needed for server cooling operations. At one site, 8°C fjord water cools equipment through a heat exchanger. Another facility uses outside air for cooling, achieving 330 days of free cooling annually. These methods improve energy efficiency and lower the overall power usage effectiveness.
