The customer is one of the largest companies in Internet trading. The contract amount is $150 million, about SEK 930 M.
The assignment involves a new, approximately 19,000-square-meter data center.
Computing power is critical to the company's operations and the aim is to increase data capacity.
Energy efficient solutions that reduce the emission of greenhouse gases were decisive in selecting Skanska for implementing the project. Skanska has developed a total solution that reduces energy costs for operation and cooling of the facility by up to 60 percent compared with traditional technology. "We have focused on developing our expertise within Green Construction," says Mike McNally, President, Skanska USA Building.
Construction is under way and is scheduled for completion in May 2010
