The same paper keeps land by the district-heat plant in municipal hands and names SEK 100 million of Borlänge Energi grid services over 20 years. An LOI is not a completed sale and not the groundbreaking access figures.

C-Lion1 lands in Helsinki, Hanko and Rostock; a Swedish EEZ fault is not a Swedish landingCinia’s C-Lion1 page names endpoints in Helsinki and Rostock, a backup landing in Hanko, a length of 1,173 km and a total capacity of 144 Tbit/s. The 18 November 2024 fault notice places the cut in the Swedish exclusive economic zone, east of the southern tip of Öland, about 700 km from Helsinki. A fault location is not a cable-landing station and not a Swedish hall.

North Pole Fiber is a Kiruna–Norway inland path; Polar Connect’s landing is described as NorwayNORDUnet’s 9 January 2024 kick-off says North Pole Fiber closes a missing link between the EU TEN-T hub in Kiruna and the Norwegian border, securing resilience for future landfall of the Polar Connect submarine cable in Norway. The Swedish Polar Research Secretariat says the project runs from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2026. An inland Swedish fibre path is not an Arctic landing station and not a Norrbotten hall.

Far North Fiber is still a route-planning Arctic system; Finland and Ireland landings are a later Call 2 lineCinia says Far North Fiber will be the first cable system through the Arctic, about 15,500 km, connecting Asia to Europe via North America and the Northwest Passage, and that route planning is in progress. The Commission’s 3 December 2024 page lists 17,000 km and says a later Call 2 implementation includes landing stations in Finland and Ireland. Planned length and a later landing-station sentence are not a built Nordic campus.

Svenska kraftnät bidding-area table: 5,169 MW of data-center applications sit in SE3Svenska kraftnät’s bidding-area page, reviewed on 2 September 2026, splits requested transmission-network capacity before reservation. Data-center consumption appears as 495 MW in SE1, 1,320 MW in SE2, 5,169 MW in SE3 and a blank cell in SE4. Those are applications still in the queue. They are not reserved megawatts and not a named hall.

Svenska kraftnät: 780 MW of consumption reserved in 2026 through August is not a data-center totalThe reserved-capacity table reviewed on 2 September 2026 says 3,009 MW of production and 780 MW of consumption were reserved in 2026 through August. Reservation happens when a preliminary notice is sent. Allocation comes later, with a signed connection agreement. Those annual totals are not split by data center.

The first greenhouse phase is expected in the third quarter of 2028, next to the data center and inside the local-plan area. A signed heat paper is not 2028 delivery, and Ølgod is not Ballerup or SWE04.

Initial phases will deliver 120 MW, with a ramp-up to 350 MW. Power availability is projected for 2028, supported by substations from Statnett and Fagne. A land purchase is not energization, and Haugaland is not SWE04 or Stargate Norway.

Energinet pauses new large connection agreements; 14 GW of data-center requests is a queue, not Danish hallsOn 27 May 2026 Energinet said it was introducing a new model for larger connections and would first sign new grid-connection agreements in the autumn. CNBC’s 4 May 2026 report, citing an Energinet spokesperson, put about 60 GW of projects in the connection wait against a Danish peak load of about 7 GW, with data centers about 14 GW of that wait. Requested is not energised, and none of those gigawatts is a Swedish hall.

The eight-week hearing ended on 25 June 2026. Final political treatment is later described as expected in September and October. That is Danish planning process. It is not a building permit and not SWE04.

Construction was said to have started in September 2025, with an opening in 2026. The 11 November 2025 interim report adds the acquisition of Bunkeberget Park AB and three hectares above ground. That is a land-and-strategy notice, not a megawatt.

Fira says Lappeenranta main construction began in July 2026; 310 MW is still a completed-campus figureOn 11 August 2026 Finnish contractor Fira said it had begun construction of Nebius’s Pajarila campus in Lappeenranta. Earthworks started in spring 2026, main works in July 2026, and the first building is expected in the first half of 2027. Approximately 310 megawatts is the contractor’s wording for total power capacity once the entire campus is completed. That is not an energised first hall and not a Swedish megawatt.

They currently make district heat from ambient air and electric boilers. Recovery of waste heat from Microsoft’s two data centres on those sites is to begin step by step the following year. A running heat plant is not delivered hall heat, and 40 percent of a 2 TWh Finnish demand is not a Swedish offtake.

The facility is planned to deliver 230 MW, with an ambition to expand by a further 290 MW, and to target 100,000 NVIDIA GPUs by the end of 2026. Planned and target are not energised megawatts, and Kvandal is not a Swedish campus.

The notice describes 165 MW of contracted IT capacity, an initial 50 MW phase already under construction, and a design for closed-loop cooling and waste-heat recovery. It is a Finnish partnership notice. It does not open a Swedish site or add megawatts to Falun or Borlänge.

EcoDataCenter announces a third Dalarna campus in Smedjebacken; English 150 MW is not in the Swedish noticeOn 25 August 2026 EcoDataCenter published paired English and Swedish notices about land in Smedjebacken’s Röbacken industrial area. The Swedish text describes a 52-hectare option agreement, permits targeted for 2027 and first operation in 2029. The English text says a purchase agreement and “green light of an immediate 150MW.” Those are different wordings. Neither notice is a building permit, a commissioning certificate or a new Falun megawatt.

The contract covers 10 MW in bidding area SE3 between 2026 and 2030, with guarantees of origin from Dalälven hydropower. A PPA envelope is not commissioned IT load and is not added to the 41 MW annual-report sentence.

The authority’s own table says capacity is reserved when a preliminary notice is sent, and that actual allocation comes later with a signed connection agreement. Half of the new 2025 withdrawal applications were data centers. Reserved is not energised, and the reserved total is not a data-center total.

Northern hyperscale cluster reading guide: Luleå, Boden, Meta, Hydro66Norrbotten contains two publicly documented data-center hooks in SE1: Meta’s Luleå campus, operational from 2013 on the cited careers page, and a Hydro66 Svenska company record in Boden. Current megawatts for both files are unknown in the sources used here. A 2011 announced energy need is not current operating capacity. The two municipalities are not one campus. A hydropower sentence is not a connection agreement.

West-coast hall and heat: GleSYS Falkenberg’s 3 MW and 5 MW rowsOn 1 October 2020 GleSYS said heat delivery from its new Falkenberg hall to Falkenberg Energi had started, and listed 3 MW utility power at completion. A later operator page states 5 MW total capacity and continues to describe district-heat recovery. Those are two dated rows. Halland sits in SE4. This register does not invent a second Halland hall and does not convert 2020 potential heat wording into a measured megawatt-hour series.

Foreign investment screening reader: ISP literacy without nationality slogansSweden screens certain foreign direct investments. The Riksdag adopted the Screening of Foreign Direct Investments Act (2023:560) on 13 September 2023. The Act entered into force on 1 December 2023. Inspektionen för strategiska produkter is the screening authority. Whether a filing is required depends on the activity and the investment structure. This article does not label nationalities as approved or forbidden and does not decide a case.

Grid-queue literacy: indicative, applied, reserved, allocated, energizedSvenska kraftnät’s indicative transmission-network capacity map is a 2026 county-level indication. It does not replace the formal connection process and does not show underlying-network capacity. Applied, reserved, allocated and energized are different categories on the authority’s own page. They must not be summed into a spare-megawatt figure for a plot in Luleå, Falun, Stockholm or Staffanstorp.
