Sweden's all-wood EcoDataCenter: 1.15 PUE, just 1.17g CO2/kWh, zero water use
filwi · reddit · 2026-11-13
Sweden's EcoDataCenter showcases a datacenter built from wood with zero water use, 100% renewable energy, and a carbon usage effectiveness of just 1.17g CO2/kWh — versus a US average of 414g and EU average of 263g. Its PUE of 1.15 beats the EU average of 1.36. The poster notes Sweden's north has an energy surplus currently sold cheaply southward, arguing local datacenter buildout makes more sense than new builds in Germany or France.
