ATNORTH AS

Overview

atNorth AS is a datacenter-focused energy consumer pursuing large-scale grid connections across Norway, with 576 MW of active consumption capacity reserved across multiple transformer stations. The company has no concession cases, operating purely as a power consumer rather than a producer. Recent weeks have seen a notable strategic retreat from NO1 connections — withdrawing over 216 MW at Hasle and Minne TRA — while retaining a strong 350 MW position at Ringerike (NO1) and 350 MW at Spanne (NO2) in Karmøy.

Active Regions

Strategic Focus

atNorth AS is a pure-play datacenter operator focused on securing large-scale grid consumption capacity at multiple Norwegian locations. Their strategy centers on establishing hyperscale or colocation datacenter campuses in areas with available grid capacity. The company appears to be rationalizing its NO1 portfolio — pulling back from Hasle and Minne TRA connections — while doubling down on Ringerike in the NO1 zone and Spanne (Karmøy) in the NO2 zone, likely attracted by competitive power prices and available transformer capacity in those areas.

Recent Activity

In August 2026, atNorth carried out a significant consolidation of its NO1 grid queue positions, withdrawing a total of approximately 216 MW across Hasle TRA (30 MW reserved + 60 MW in queue) and Minne TRA (50 MW reserved + 46 MW in queue). These withdrawals suggest a deliberate strategic pullback from the eastern Oslo-area grid nodes, potentially due to grid capacity constraints, cost considerations, or a refocusing of datacenter site plans. The company retains strong active positions at Ringerike (176 MW) and Spanne/Karmøy (350 MW).
