Bravida Finland performs installation work for a 15,000 square metre XTX Markets data centre in Kajaani

Bravida Finland has been awarded a contract for electrical installation work at XTX Markets’ first data centre being built in northern Finland. Bravida’s assignment includes installations in server rooms and office spaces, and the implementation of electricity for processes.

UK-based algorithmic trading company XTX Markets is building a large data centre complex in Kajaani. This is one of Finland's largest industrial investments, at around 1 billion euros. Construction of the first data centre, which is where Bravida is performing installation work, has already started.

“This is a unique project due to its extensive size. A data centre is a special environment requiring high power capacity and extensive coordination between the different parties involved. In a data centre, the power supply must be uninterruptible and the systems must work reliably in all situations,” comments Teemu Honkonen, Branch Manager of Bravida's Electrical Branch in Oulu, Finland.

Janne Salmenoja, Head of YIT's Energy and Industrial Construction Unit, comments:

“Building a data centre requires specialised expertise with precise integration of various technical systems and close cooperation between all parties involved in the project. Bravida's expertise and experience from previous data centre projects ensures that this project will be carried out professionally and with careful consideration of the customer's needs.”

Bravida's work started in March 2025 and the first data centre is expected to be completed in 2026.
