OSLO, Norway, Mar 17, 2025 – CoreWeave has announced a partnership to establish one of the largest NVIDIA AI deployments in Europe at Vennesla, Norway.
CoreWeave will use Bulk‘s N01 Datacenter Campus to deploy a large-scale NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 cluster interconnected with ultra-fast NVIDIA Quantum-2 InfiniBand networking as part of this partnership. The deployment aims to enhance computing capacity in Norway and is expected to be operational by summer 2025.
In 2024, CoreWeave revealed plans to invest $2.2 billion in Europe, building new data centers equipped with advanced AI infrastructure. The facilities are planned to run entirely on renewable energy. “I am pleased to hear about the collaboration between CoreWeave and Bulk Infrastructure in the establishing of CoreWeave’s new AI-data center in Norway, said Norwegian minister of digitalization and public governance, Karianne Tung. “The goal of the Norwegian government is to establish a national infrastructure for AI towards 2030. Norway being selected as one of the host countries for CoreWeave’s expanded AI-infrastructure in Europe, shows we are attractive internationally as a location for high quality data center-services. As minister of digitalization, I am confident that the Bulk-CoreWeave partnership will add value to the further development of AI in Norway.”
“We’re excited to partner with Bulk to further expand our regional footprint and capacity in Europe to support the growing need for AI and high-performance computing across the region,” said Mike Mattacola, chief business officer, CoreWeave. “Bulk’s commitment to sustainability, future-proof infrastructure and ability to scale supporting our expansion plans make them an ideal partner in Norway.”
“Working with a globally renowned AI-company like CoreWeave marks a significant milestone for Bulk. Securing an AI deployment of this size demonstrates our capability to meet the needs of our major customers,” said Jon Gravråk, CEO, Bulk Infrastructure. “Our N01 Datacenter Campus is uniquely equipped to meet the stringent demands of AI workloads, and this collaboration aligns perfectly with our mission to provide sustainable and scalable digital infrastructure solutions.”
“We need partners like Bulk building the latest large scale liquid ready AI data centers and CoreWeave building and deploying leading AI infrastructure to satisfy the needs of our customers across Europe,” said Jaap Zuiderveld, vice president EMEA at NVIDIA. “The deployment of this large-scale NVIDIA GB200 cluster by CoreWeave and Bulk represents a significant step in scaling advanced AI compute capacity across Europe in one of the region’s most sustainable locations.”
