About Meta Odense Data Center

One Meta campus with successive building phases, operational heat recovery and two halted 2022 expansion buildings. Meta Odense Data Center is in Odense / Tietgenbyen, 83, DK and is a data center campus with operational status. Participants include Meta Platforms, Inc. as developer, Fjernvarme Fyn as utility, Ramboll as engineering contractor, Per Aarsleff A/S as contractor. Development comprises Initial campus phase (operational), 2020 expansion (operational), Single continued 2022 building (unknown). Key milestones include DKK2.4 billion civil-works contract terminated. (2022-12-13) and Meta confirms two buildings halted and one continued. (2022-12-15). district heat recovery — 45 MW thermal: Tietgenbyen Energy Center uses ammonia heat pumps and a water loop to raise server heat to district-heating temperature. surplus heat delivery — 165000 MWh/year: Meta fact-sheet basis; Ramboll engineering case reports 215,000 MWh/year and remains a parallel dated measure. Permitting includes municipal building and operating permits for Odense campus operational/building permit set (partially researched).
