en.Wedoany.com Reported - Nordic data center company Hyperco plans to develop a second data center in Koria, Kouvola, Finland, and has submitted a permit application.

According to local media reports including Yle and Kouvolan Sanomat, the company submitted the application earlier this month to build a two-story data center with a total capacity of up to 100MW, covering an area of 56,670 square meters (609,990 square feet). The Kouvola Technical Committee will review the permit application on Tuesday, June 16. Hyperco has requested permission to begin construction before the building permit officially takes effect, citing that foundations are easier to build before the ground freezes in winter.

Kouvola is the administrative capital of the Kymenlaakso region in Finland, located approximately 135 kilometers northeast of the capital Helsinki. Hyperco's first data center in Koria began construction last year as a single-story building, with completion planned for May 2027. That project is being co-developed with DayOne and will serve TikTok. The second data center will be located on an adjacent plot.

Founded in 2020, Hyperco was acquired in April 2025 by Edgnex, the data center subsidiary of Dubai-based real estate company Damac. The company had previously acquired its first data center in 2022 from Finnish family office TS-Yhtymä for over €35 million ($36.4 million). At the time, the 16,900-square-meter (181,900-square-foot) property in Vantaa already had two long-term tenants: Equinix and Thales. Additionally, Hyperco is developing other projects in Espoo, Pyhäjoki, and Lohja, and its operations are also linked to another site in the Voikkaa industrial area of Kouvola.
