Jurisdiction
Sweden has 4 tracked bills on artificial intelligence and data centers: 2 enacted, 2 in committee.
The atlas records 10 data-center facilities in Sweden, and the 10 that report capacity total about 1,603 MW.

Cold-climate free-air cooling and Norrbotten hydropower have made it one of Europe's premier green data center destinations, anchored by Meta's Luleå hyperscale campus. A concurrent push to authorize AI facial recognition for police (Proposition 2025/26:150) is drawing civil-liberties scrutiny.
