On September 9, 2026, Google announced it will invest at least €13 billion in digital infrastructure in Finland over two years, 2027–2028, which it called its largest single investment in Europe. The investment covers data centers and supporting infrastructure in Hamina, Kajaani, Muhos and Vaala. Hamina, a former paper mill Google bought in 2009, already hosts one of Google’s cloud regions. Google gave no megawatt figure for the data centers.
On energy, Google announced a 22-year life-extension power purchase agreement with Fortum for the Loviisa nuclear plant, new onshore wind agreements with Valorem and Suomen Hyötytuuli that bring its new-to-grid onshore wind capacity in Finland to 629 MW, and a contracted 94 MW battery system near Kajaani expected to operate in late 2027.
