Nordic AI Infrastructure Forum – November 13, 2024
The Nordic AI Infrastructure Forum took place in Stockholm on November 13th, gathering over 180 industry professionals, researchers, and policymakers at Piperska Muren. This event, organized by all Nordic data center associations, focused on the vital role that artificial intelligence plays in shaping modern society and its implications for digital infrastructure.
The forum featured a dynamic lineup of keynote speeches, thought-provoking panel discussions, and interactive Q&A sessions. Speakers from leading tech companies, research institutions, and government agencies explored the impact of AI on various sectors, from healthcare and finance to sustainable energy and smart cities. The half-day event highlighted the growing need for robust, energy-efficient infrastructure to support AI development in the Nordic region, where sustainability and innovation are top priorities.
This forum was the culmination of two full days of collaboration among Nordic data center organizations. Together, they are working towards establishing the Nordics as a leader in AI-driven, sustainable digital infrastructure.
A big thank you goes out to everyone who participated and contributed to the event's success. Special recognition is owed to Isabelle Kemline for her outstanding leadership, ensuring that everything ran smoothly and that attendees left inspired and eager to drive positive change in the AI landscape.
Status of Sweden and Reporting for Data Centers According to EED
The government has now released a memorandum for consultation where reporting for data centers is addressed.
The Swedish Energy Agency has also published information related to this.
Since reporting must be conducted through the respective member state and legislation needs to be in place, Swedish operators will not be able to report until then.
You can find the Swedish Energy Agency's news and the draft legislation here:
Nya krav på rapportering för datacenter (energimyndigheten.se)
Hållbarhetskriterier för vissa bränslen och en ny reduktionsplikt - Regeringen.se
The legislative changes are proposed to come into effect on July 1, 2025, and responses to the consultation must be submitted to the Ministry of Climate and Enterprise by November 12, 2024.
We thank both the Government Offices and the Swedish Energy Agency for their good cooperation so far.
