Luleå grows sustainably
Electricity from renewable hydropower and stable electrics have made Facebook want to build their European data centre in Luleå. Together with Boden and Piteå, we have created The Node Pole to become a global hub for data traffic.

Luleå Science Park at Luleå University of Technology has a leading role in creating innovations and attractiveness. The park houses around 100 knowledge intensive businesses.
Surplus gas from SSAB´s steel mill heats large parts of Luleå. District heating is the cheapest in Sweden.
Luleå is growing. Over the coming ten years, there are plans for 5,000 new and climate-smart homes.
Public transport has Sweden’s most satisfied customers and the number of bus journeys made is increasing steadily. This autumn, production of fuel gas for vehicles will begin at the town’s sewage treatment plant and we are to become Sweden’s best town for cycling.
We collaborate globally. A collaboration with Austin in Texas has recently been initiated to strengthen Luleå’s creative powers. We have a different type of collaboration with multimillion city Xi’an in China.
The list is much longer. Get in touch, and we’ll tell you more.
