The City of Espoo has taken a significant step towards its 2030 carbon neutrality goal by selling about 21.6 hectares of land in Hepokorvenkallio, Högnäs, to Microsoft 3465 Finland Oy. This land sale, amounting to approximately EUR 30.9 million, paves the way for the construction of a data centre, which is set to play a crucial role in Espoo's climate strategy.
The planned data centre is more than just a hub for digital storage and processing.
