The American tech giant Meta – which operates Facebook and Instagram – is considering building a large data center near Oulu in northern Finland, Bloomberg reports, citing a statement from the municipality.

The plan being discussed is to build the server halls near the Herva power station, which is due to be commissioned in two years.

How large the data center can be and how much investment is needed is not stated in the communication.

To proceed with the project, an environmental impact assessment and permit are required, as well as a final decision from Meta.
