| Capacity (MW) | 25 MW total site capacity, 22,600 m² (operator-published) Sources: greenmountain.no |
| Power source claim | 100% renewable hydropower; fjord seawater cooling. Heat reuse: NONE ACTIVE AT THIS SITE. The Norwegian Lobster Farm collaboration (from 2021, world's first land-based lobster farm, EU Horizon 2020-funded, Grant NO880911, using ~20degC fjord-cooling outflow directly) has ENDED and is no longer running -- confirmed by Green Mountain in response to our questions, August 2026. Described here as history only; it does not count toward this site's present heat-reuse position. Sources: greenmountain.no |

| Ownership / jurisdiction | Azrieli Group, Israel (100% owner since 2021, ~$850M, acquired from Smedvig family). Managing Director Nordics: Truls Dishington (since 22 May 2026, succeeding Halvor Bjerke). Sources: baxtel.com · greenmountain.no |

| Verification notes | CORRECTION 27 Aug 2026: this page previously described the Norwegian Lobster Farm heat-reuse project as active. Green Mountain confirmed via right of reply that the collaboration has ended. No public source we found indicated this -- the error was identified only through the right-of-reply process. Green Mountain also confirmed that the 2025 Sustainability Report is self-reported and that PUE and emissions data are NOT third-party audited; the report is prepared with reference to the ESRS framework, which the company describes as a deliberate transition from previous practice. Grade A applies to what the operator publishes, not to independently assured figures. 2025 Sustainability Report published 16 Jun 2026. Capacity now operator-published (25 MW), supersedes prior third-party design-figure estimate (26 MW). Right of reply sent 21 Aug 2026; ANSWERED by Green Mountain 27 Aug 2026, within the window. The operator answered our questions but did not submit a separate statement for publication. |
