Construction has begun on the first 50MW phase of a 165MW data-center campus in Mikkeli, Finland, for Cerebras, developed with Compute Nordic Finland. The project is planned to scale from 50MW to 80MW and then 165MW, with expected investment of €1 billion to €1.7 billion. The campus will use closed-loop cooling and is designed for waste-heat recovery to the local community. Compute Nordic described the build-out as contractually committed and phased.
