## Colocation lease rates in Oslo

DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.

Oslo's tracked facilities number 54 across multiple operators, with one site currently reporting power consumption metrics to the market. GlobalConnect Group and Blix Solutions AS each operate three facilities in the market, while Blix Solutions Oslo, Basefarm AS, and Basefarm Oslo each hold smaller portfolios. The operator base remains relatively fragmented, with no single entity controlling a dominant share of tracked capacity.

Operators seeking new power connections or expansions face structural headwinds on both supply availability and grid infrastructure readiness. This two-sided tightness distinguishes Oslo from markets with asymmetric profiles and makes power procurement planning complex for new entrants or scaling operators.

Recent tracked deal flow in Oslo remains absent, which contrasts with evidence of ongoing project activity in the market. Magnora Data Center has partnered with Blix to operate a 2MW facility and previously occupied space in a converted building formerly used by Bankenes Betalingssentral. These announcements point to gradual facility deployment and capital formation, though they do not show up in the formal deal pipeline tracked here.
