A sustainability strategy committed to more Download Sustainability Report 2025 Home Sustainability Sustainability strategy Sustainability and beyond Developing and operating a sustainable business is crucial for atNorth. As a provider of critical digital infrastructure, we operate in a world of finite resources, evolving environmental challenges and growing societal expectations. For us, sustainability means continuously reducing our environmental impact, acting responsibly and deliberately, and contributing positively to the communities and ecosystems we are part of. Scaling digital infrastructure presents complex challenges and trade-offs. It also creates opportunities to innovate, improve efficiency, and create long-term value for customers, communities, and society. We remain committed to aligning our business with global sustainability objectives while expanding our focus beyond “doing less harm” and towards creating positive, regenerative outcomes wherever possible. Download Progress on goals for 2025 and beyond The big picture and why it matters The current global trajectory is putting increasing pressure on both natural systems and society. Frameworks such as planetary boundaries and social foundations show that businesses must do more than reduce harm – they must help create conditions where people and nature can thrive. Our approach To support this work, atNorth is using the Future-Fit Business Framework to better understand our impact across environmental and social areas. To deliver on our ambition, we must understand our business impact on the planetary boundaries and social foundations. Understanding and mitigating potential negative impacts from a systemic perspective is challenging. In 2025, we completed a high-level assessment against relevant Future-Fit goals. We are now developing a roadmap to help guide our progress towards becoming a Future-Fit business. Strategic priorities In 2024, atNorth outlined a sustainability and regeneration strategy. This strategy has been further matured and expanded in 2025 and is built around three strategic pillars that guide our priorities and activities. The planetary boundaries and social foundations form the core framework for this strategy, helping guide our actions across our own operations and wider value chain. Our ambition is to reduce negative impacts while increasing positive outcomes for people, communities, and nature. Download Strategic priorities Covers our impact on nature and the environment. Covers those employed at atNorth, the local communities where we operate, and people along our value chain. Covers the management of our internal and external business functions, with a strong culture in place – one that enables us to move forward with care, speed and innovation.

This partnership with atnorth allows us to bring the concentrated energy demand of compute infrastructure directly to the source of clean, renewable geothermal and hydro energy. Cully Cavness Co-Founder and President, Crusoe View case studies Frequently asked questions What is atNorth’s mission in terms of sustainability and data center infrastructure? atNorth’s vision is to be the decarbonization partner of choice, with sustainability and social responsibility at the core of what we do. How do you utilize or minimize water usage at your sites? atNorth primarily operates on air cooling, leveraging favorable Nordic climates to minimize water consumption. Water consumption at atNorth is limited. Water is primarily utilized for humidification within the data halls and for cooling the IT equipment. All operational facilities use closed-loop water cooling systems. This significantly reduces consumption compared to an open loop cooling solution. Several of our buildings run entirely on air cooling. Does atNorth have a sustainability process or policy in place? Sustainability is one of the company’s strategic pillars, outlining goals to further strengthen our sustainability journey in all our operations. Our 2025 Sustainability Report provides an in-depth look at how atNorth is redefining the future of data centers. Do you use renewable energy to power your data centers? atNorth’s Nordic locations ensure that all our sites are powered by renewable energy sources. Two-thirds of electricity produced in the Nordics comes from renewable resources and the entire region is on track to become fully carbon neutral by 2050, with some countries setting ambitious targets to achieve this by 2035. The demand for data centers is growing at great speed – how will atNorth manage resource use, land operational impact effectively? The local communities that surround our sites play a central role in atNorth’s approach to data center development. We take great pride and seek to build long-term, mutually beneficial relationships by maintaining a strong local presence, creating employment opportunities, and supporting initiatives that advance sustainability, restoration, and circular use of resources. Community integration is considered from the earliest stages of site development and remains a priority throughout operations.
