Market survey – Request for information on sustainability in data centres.

Norwegian Defence Materiel Agency wishes to map which climate and environment considerations related to energy use, energy efficiency and circular practices in data centres, that can be relevant to demand for future procurements of computer centre services. The purpose is to gain insight into how suppliers currently work with renewable energy, waste heat, energy efficiency and emission reporting, uncover regional and technical variations that can affect the delivery, and assess verifiability, available documentation and possible challenges in the making of requirement specification. The market survey is not binding, does not constitute a competition and the answers will not be used for qualification or evaluation in later procurement procedures. The information will only be used as decision support when designing requirements and criteria, and when following-up contracts. Tenderers are encouraged to respond as specifically as possible, but it is acceptable to state intervals, describe variations or account for limitations related to security, third party agreements or business sensitive information. Input on challenges and consequences with different requirements is particularly valuable. See the attached document for further questions and further information on this market survey. If there are questions for Norwegian Defence Material Agency when preparing answers to this market survey, we request that these are sent through the message function in Mercell. The deadline for submitting answers to the market survey, is set to 11th May 2026, 12:00. Replies are to be sent through the message function in Mercell.
