North Atlantic Data Fortress 64.13°N · 21.93°W Live
Industrial-grade compute infrastructure powered by 100% Icelandic geothermal and hydroelectric energy. Zero carbon. Zero water. Sovereign by design. Community-integrated by architecture.
Iceland sits atop the Mid-Atlantic Ridge — a tectonic boundary where the Eurasian and North American plates meet. Beneath the surface: limitless geothermal energy, channeled directly into our compute grid.
While data centers worldwide battle rising cooling costs and carbon offsets, Svalinn operates in ambient sub-5°C conditions year-round, eliminating mechanical cooling entirely. This is not sustainable theatre. This is geological inevitability.
Arctic ambient temperatures maintain sub-10°C air intake, eliminating mechanical cooling entirely. PUE ratio of 1.22 — among the lowest on Earth.
A direct feed from the Hengill geothermal area and Landsvirkjun hydroelectric network provides uninterruptible, baseload renewable power with no grid intermediaries.
Transatlantic fiber cable landings connect Reykjavik directly to New York, London, and Amsterdam — making Iceland the lowest-latency green compute option for the entire North Atlantic corridor.
Iceland operates under its own legal framework, independent of Five Eyes intelligence networks. Your data is governed by Icelandic law — not subject to extraterritorial access requests.
Iceland sits on one of the most seismically predictable geothermal systems on the planet. Power delivery has maintained 99.99% reliability over 30 years of continuous operation.
Not software. Not platforms. Heavy industrial compute infrastructure — engineered for the workloads that define the next era of enterprise AI and data sovereignty.
Dedicated GPU clusters for large language model training, inference, and fine-tuning at scale. Air-gapped configurations available for classified workloads.
Ultra-low latency content delivery and edge routing across the North Atlantic corridor. Direct peering with Tier 1 carriers at 100Gbps.
Immutable, high-security data archiving with geothermal-cooled deep storage. WORM compliance, multi-petabyte capacity, regulatory-grade audit trails.
Sharded, globally distributed SQL and NoSQL database infrastructure. Designed for the throughput demands of AI pipelines and real-time analytics at continental scale.
Raw, unmetered compute power. No hypervisor overhead. No noisy neighbors. Direct hardware access for HPC, quantitative modeling, and workloads that demand every last cycle.
We don't buy offsets. We don't balance carbon after the fact. Every watt of compute power delivered by Svalinn carries a verified carbon footprint of absolute zero — because the grid powering our infrastructure has never burned a molecule of fossil fuel.
By 2026, the AI water crisis is no longer a niche concern — it's a mainstream PR nightmare for Big Tech. Traditional data centers lose approximately 80% of their water to evaporation during cooling. In drought-stricken regions like Texas, California, and Arizona, this has triggered protests, regulatory scrutiny, and punishing sustainability taxes.
Iceland doesn't need to evaporate freshwater to stay cool. Our closed-loop liquid cooling systems use naturally cold groundwater that is fully recycled, reducing water consumption by over 90% compared to a US-based facility.
"Every time you send a query to a traditional AI, a bottle of freshwater evaporates in a drought-stricken region. At Svalinn, we've moved the brain to the Arctic. By hosting your workloads on our sovereign Icelandic infrastructure, we utilize natural sub-zero air and 100% geothermal power. We don't just protect your data — we protect the planet's most precious resource."
In Arizona, AI compute is a burden on the grid and the water table. In Iceland, your AI queries are literally helping grow local produce and heat homes in Reykjavik. It's not just carbon-neutral — it's community-integrated.
Svalinn doesn't dissipate heat — we recycle it. Every joule of thermal energy produced by your compute workloads is captured, redirected, and put to work. Your DeepSeek inference run doesn't add new heat to the planet; it replaces the need for a separate heater somewhere else.
Moving heat from a 40°C server into 45°C desert air is thermodynamically uphill. It requires active work: compressors, fans, chillers — all burning additional electricity. You spend ~30% extra energy just to get rid of the heat your compute already generated.
Like placing a hot coffee inside a hot oven and trying to cool it with a fan.
Moving heat from a 40°C server into 5°C Arctic air happens naturally, passively, by thermodynamics alone. No compressors. No chillers. Cold air wants the heat. You don't fight physics — you work with it. ~30% less total electricity just to keep the chips from melting.
Like placing a hot coffee on a cold Arctic porch. It cools itself.
Three closed-loop pathways that transform waste into community value.
Exhaust heat from our GPU clusters is piped directly into Icelandic commercial greenhouses, enabling the cultivation of tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and herbs that would otherwise be imported by air. Your DeepSeek queries grow food.
Iceland's district heating network accepts thermal output from industrial sources. Our server exhaust is routed into the municipal heating grid, directly displacing the need for dedicated geothermal heating capacity in residential and commercial buildings.
The sum of our heat recycling pathways means Svalinn adds zero new heat to the planet. You are not adding to the global thermal burden; you are substituting for heat that would have been generated by an alternative source anyway. It's not just neutral — it's thermodynamically positive.
Svalinn — named for the mythological Norseshield that stands before the sun, preventing the world from burning. Our infrastructure serves the same purpose: standing between your critical data workloads and the compounding crises of climate risk, energy instability, and digital sovereignty.
