About Green Mountain
Green Mountain designs, builds, and operates highly secure, innovative and sustainable colocation datacentres across Europe. The company has delivered 100% uptime since the start of operations and operational excellence is at the core at everything Green Mountain does, employing a framework approach to monitor, report and analyse customer’s infrastructure performance using thousands of sensors throughout its datacentres to ensure maximum consistent performance is delivered.
Scan has partnered with Green Mountain to offer NVIDIA DGX-ready hosted and managed solutions in some of the world’s greenest datacentres. Together, this provides colocation customers deploying mission critical AI, enterprise and cloud workloads with a secure, scalable and sustainable compute environment, backed by a guarantee of 100% uptime.
Green Mountain Locations
Green Mountain currently operates four different datacentre sites in Norway and the UK. Its original datacentre is located at Rennesøy outside Stavanger in the western part of Norway and is built deep inside a mountain using a former high security NATO ammunition store. The second site is at Rjukan, Telemark - close to six hydro-electric power plants. The third is located 20km outside Oslo, the Norwegian capital, with the UK site being located in Romford, east London.
A fifth site is under construction where Green Mountain and German power company KMW have teamed up in a joint venture to build a new site in Mainz, 30 km outside Frankfurt. The site will be powered by 100% renewable energy from KMW’s wind and solar power portfolio, with gas turbine generators providing the backup power. The site will also be efficiently cooled by the river Rhine.
