Building the future of sustainable AI infrastructure

Article published by Forbes EC 11 May

A recent Forbes Ecuador article dives into the story behind Crusoe Energy, a U.S.-based startup tackling AI’s growing energy demands by building sustainable data centers powered by stranded and renewable energy. The centerpiece of the story is Stargate, a $500 billion data center initiative in Texas backed by major players like OpenAI and Oracle. The project aims to support the enormous computing power needed for future AI models — and signals a global shift toward large-scale, energy-efficient infrastructure.

As part of this expansion, Crusoe closed out the year by partnering with atNorth, the Icelandic data center developer, to bring Crusoe Cloud services to Iceland. The country’s naturally cold climate allows for more efficient GPU cooling, reinforcing Crusoe’s commitment to sustainability.

As the demand for AI-ready infrastructure accelerates, atNorth continues to play a vital role in enabling sustainable digital growth through renewable energy, innovative design, and strategic Nordic locations.
