MARKET INSIGHTS

The Sweden data center market will witness investments of USD 3.83 billion by 2027, from USD 2.26 billion in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 9.15% from 2021-2027. The country has the presence of major cloud service providers such as AWS, Microsoft, Google, and Oracle, & hyperscale operator, Facebook, which are contributing to the expansion of the market in the country along with expected growth opportunities for wholesale colocation providers.

The Government of Sweden launched the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC), which prevents, identifies, and protects IT networks from cyber-attacks. Sweden data center market is growing, aided by factors such as digitalization growth, robust connectivity, and increasing investments in renewable energy generation. The industry also has GDPR implemented, which acts as a driver for increasing demand for facilities construction due to the need for storing data locally in the country.

Regarding 5G connectivity, telecom operators such as Tele2, Telia Sweden, Tre, Telenor, Net4Mobility, and 3 Sweden are deploying 5G network services across the country. For instance, Net4Mobility aims to cover around 90% of the population through its 5G network services. Further, the country has abundant renewable energy sources, with over 60% renewable energy mix, which is likely to reach 100% by 2040. In addition, the country aims to be carbon neutral by 2045.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

• The country's government has taken several digital initiatives to support digitalization that will drive data center demand. For instance, the Government of Sweden established its National Digitalization Council in 2017 as part of its digitalization strategy for growing the country's digital growth opportunities.
• The country has been witnessing the adoption of high computing power technologies such as AI supported by government initiatives.
