The project
What is planned for Forssa?
QTS says it is developing its first data centre campus in Finland on a site of approximately 150 hectares in Forssa. QTS will develop and operate the project, with investment from funds managed by affiliates of Blackstone.
A data centre is a digital infrastructure building where large volumes of data are stored and processed. Data centres support services including online banking, medical records, internet services and other everyday digital activity.
Timeline and traffic
A multi-phase development
QTS says construction is likely to take place in multiple phases over several years. Phase one construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in 2027.
Construction traffic will vary by phase. QTS says it will work with the municipality to reduce disruption and keep the community informed. Operational and maintenance traffic is expected to be low, with most vehicles being small cars and medium vans.
Environment
Measures announced by QTS
Water-free cooling
QTS says its cooling system will significantly reduce demand on local water supplies.
Free cooling
The system uses cool outside air and, according to QTS, helps minimise cooling-related power consumption.
Energy and construction
QTS states that it aims to source power from carbon-free sources and build to green building standards.
Green space
QTS plans on-site green spaces, habitat preservation and biodiversity enhancements both on and off the site.
