OpenAI to Build 230MW Stargate Data Center in Norway
OpenAI has announced plans to construct a massive 230-megawatt data center in Norway as part of its Stargate initiative, marking the project’s European expansion. The facility will be developed with local partners and is expected to support OpenAI’s growing demand for AI model training and infrastructure. The site selection aligns with Norway’s emphasis on renewable energy, aiming to power the center with clean hydroelectric sources. This follows OpenAI’s broader push to scale its compute capabilities globally, including earlier developments in the U.S.
This move underscores the intensifying race to develop global AI infrastructure and highlights Europe’s role in AI expansion.
