Data Tank Nordic Utajärvi — four-building data-centre campus (permit 26-0014-RL, Prosessitie)

Site preparation last observed as of · Authoritative status update

The municipality republishes NYAB's release of 9 October 2026: NYAB Finland Oy has signed a contract for the preparatory works of the first phase of the data-centre campus planned in Utajärvi, developed by Data Tank Nordic Oy, the project company of AMP Tank AG; the works start immediately; the contract covers site-preparation and infrastructure works required for the campus, with options to extend the preparatory works, and its value is not disclosed. The preparatory works form the first phase of the planned campus, which if implemented in full would comprise four data-centre buildings with a combined capacity of 200 MW and supporting infrastructure; NYAB's role in later phases is under negotiation. The municipal manager is quoted calling the start of construction works another concrete step in developing the campus. evidence

Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported

Ryhti publishes building reference points without a positional-accuracy statement; the recorded buildings of the permit lie up to 356 m from the selected point, and one data-centre building of the decision has no Ryhti point.

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
