Falkenberg
What started on 1 October 2020 in Falkenberg, and how should 3 MW and 5 MW be dated? Falkenberg is the west-coast municipality of the GleSYS hall. Heat delivery to Falkenberg Energi was announced as started on that day, with utility power listed at 3 MW at completion. A later operator page states 5 MW total capacity and continues to describe district-heat recovery. Measured annual heat after 2020 is not in those pages. Potential wording in the 2020 release is not treated as a measured megawatt-hour series.
Read the 1 October 2020 release first. It is the dated delivery-start claim and the 3 MW utility-power row. Read the later operator page second as the 5 MW row and as continued heat-recovery wording. Read Halland county third so no second Halland hall is invented. Read SE4 fourth. Then ask Falkenberg municipality which planning documents cover Kanslistvägen 12, the address named in 2020.
Falkenberg Energi is named as the heat buyer and, in that release, as a municipally owned company. A delivery start is stronger evidence than a prepared pipe. It is still not a multi-year measured ledger. The same release used potential language about annual recovered energy and residential buildings. This register does not convert those potentials into delivered megawatt-hours. Stockholm Data Parks is a different geography and a different evidence state.
Keep the two megawatt rows. 3 MW is historical utility power as of the 2020 completion wording. 5 MW is later operator “total capacity” wording. The cited pages do not explain whether expansion occurred. GPU-density or rack-density claims on the operator page are design limits unless occupied load is stated. PUE figures on operator pages are design or operator figures, not a planning score.
Common misreads: silently replacing 3 MW with 5 MW; treating 2020 potential annual heat as measured delivery; adding Falkenberg into a Stockholm Exergi total; treating SE4 as a connection refusal; treating carrier lists as independently verified diversity without a current as-built drawing. Another misread is to treat the 2020 “West Coast’s largest” marketing sentence as a Sweden ranking in this register.
Ask what measured heat volume is public after 2020. Ask how the 2020 3 MW utility figure should be read against the later 5 MW operator page. Ask which GPU-density claims are design limits rather than occupied load. Ask which carriers are independently diverse. Ask which municipal documents cover the plot. Ask whether any later primary source explains the capacity-row change.
Place the hall against Stockholm and Falun without merging the heat files. Stockholm Data Parks invites recovery with Exergi; that is a different buyer and a different evidence state. EcoDataCenter describes recovery with Falu Energi & Vatten; that is a third utility. The only dated start in this municipality is 1 October 2020. Potential 26 GWh wording from that release stays potential. It is not copied into a 2026 ledger and it is not treated as Stockholm heat.
SE4 is shared with Staffanstorp and does not transfer Microsoft facts west. GleSYS Stockholm in Västberga does not transfer a megawatt south. Keep 3 MW (2020, utility power) and 5 MW (later operator total capacity) as two rows. If a later primary page explains the change or publishes measured heat, add that page. Until then unknown measured heat stays unknown.
This municipality brief proves that Falkenberg has an operating GleSYS hall with a dated heat-delivery start and two dated megawatt rows. It does not prove a measured annual heat volume after 2020 and does not invent another Falkenberg project.
