Polarise: AI Hub ONE

AI Hub ONE is an AI focused data center facility under development by Polarise, positioned “directly at Gardermoen Airport in Oslo Airport City (OAC).”

Polarise publishes a dedicated AI Hub ONE facility page with high level specifications including 3,800 m² space, 8+8 MW power, and 300+ kW per rack cooling, alongside sustainability claims such as a 2.4 MWp rooftop solar installation and heat reuse via district heating for the nearby airport.

The URL you provided (polardc.com) is the website for Polar DC, which is a different entity from Polarise; Polar DC’s published locations focus on DRA and other Polar DC sites, and do not list AI Hub ONE.
