TONSTAD DATAPARK AS

Overview

Tonstad Datapark AS is pursuing a major hyperscale data center development at Tonstad in Sirdal municipality, leveraging proximity to the Ertsmyra transformer station in the NO2 price zone. The company has secured a 300 MW grid reservation with Statnett and filed a full concession application for 640 MW of consumption capacity, alongside a recent provisional high-voltage application to support the construction phase. The project signals an intent to build out in stages, with the provisional connection enabling early site work ahead of full grid integration.

Active Regions

Strategic Focus

Tonstad Datapark AS is singularly focused on developing a large-scale data center campus in Sirdal, likely attracted by access to renewable hydropower in the NO2 price zone and available grid capacity at Ertsmyra transformer station. The phased approach — provisional construction connection followed by a full 640 MW concession application — suggests a deliberate build-out strategy typical of hyperscale or colocation data center developers.

Recent Activity

In late June 2026, Tonstad Datapark AS filed an application for a provisional high-voltage connection to enable construction activities at the Tonstad site, marking active progression of the project from planning into the physical development phase.
