Facebook is planning to build a massive new data center in the industrial town of Lulea in Swedish Lapland, about 70 miles from the Arctic Circle. The data center will consist of three buildings, the first of which will cover about 33,000 square yards, Facebook spokesperson Alex Kirschner told TechNewsWorld. That will make the building almost seven times the size of a football field. The data center will be powered "almost exclusively" by hydroelectricity, Kirschner said.
