Timrå

The councils of Timrå and Sundsvall approved the sale of the jointly owned Torsboda Industrial Park AB to DSC International AB, a company in the Google group, on 17 August 2026, on condition that the repurchase terms are renegotiated. Timrå's decision has been appealed to the administrative court.

Sundsvall municipality's own explainer says several steps remain before anything is built: the contract, permits, environmental review, building permits, energy supply and a review by the Inspectorate of Strategic Products.

The explainer gives no power figure, land area or timetable. It says Torsboda estimates at least 500 direct jobs once operations are running, and that E.ON states new customers pay for their own connection.
