Hannes Snellman Advised APL on the Development of a Data Center in Varkaus

Hannes Snellman is advising APL, a privately held firm that invests in real estate, renewable energy, digital infrastructure, and private equity transactions based in the United States, on the development of a 100 MW data center located in Varkaus, Finland.

Located on a 28-hectare site, the data center is designed to support up to 100 MW of capacity, with the first phase delivering 60 MW and with a planned 40 MW expansion to follow. The facility will span up to 75,000 square meters and benefit from Finland’s highly reliable energy infrastructure and low-risk grid environment.

Hannes Snellman’s core advisory team comprised Matti Lajunen, Klaus Metsä-Simola, Eemi Piirainen, Viola Karjalainen and Aleksi Maunumäki.
