TOP COMPETENCE IN THE DATA CENTER
NTC has extensive experience in building Norway's most energy-efficient data centres
Since 2006, NTC Services AS(NTC) has designed, delivered, installed, operated and provided service to data centers throughout Norway – with maximum energy efficiency and sustainability in mind. Even back then, we achieved a Power Usage Efficiency (PUE) in the data centers of 1.26 with the simplest measures, installation of InRow coolers with encapsulated hot zone.
Today we can get below 1.1 in PUE with Rear Door Heat Exchangers, Direct Water Cooling or Immersion Cooling. There is no longer a practical upper limit on the actual load in the computer racks, today we have solutions that handle up to 200kW per rack, if the project has hardware that requires that type of capacity, such as in connection with High Performance Computing (HPC). In our self-built colocation centre, we currently have a PUE of 1.19.

NTC supplies turnkey complete data centers
NTC builds complete, turnkey data centers. We mainly deliver to the SME market and up to a few Mega Watt total loads in the projects. We build either in a modular design in a container or prefabricated format, or into existing buildings. The latter has the advantage that you then get a much lower consumption of steel and concrete, which has a very favorable impact on the projects’ CO2 accounts.
Several of our customers have also largely checked out and used the market on the second-hand market for racks, PDUs and other equipment that not only provides a favorable entry cost in the project, but also contributes strongly to the circular economy.
NTC builds data centers with technology from the best suppliers in the world
NTC is not tied to one supplier of all equipment. We follow the market on what is available in relation to the customer’s own requirements specification. This means that in recent years we have had “hybrid” installations that consist of the best suppliers for the various specialist areas that form part of a total tdata center project. We not only look at price, performance and technology, but also in the context of subsequent service and support services.
We encourage all customers to look at CAPEX in conjunction with OPEX, to get a correct picture of the total life cycle costs, not just the initial investments.
