Facebook's first server farm to be outside the United States may be on the arctic circle to take advantage of the temperature. In the town of Lulea, in northern Sweden a serber farm that will use more power than a town of 50,000 people. Some power will come from sustainable resources on the Lulea river, which makes more power than the Hoover Dam. That's a lot of power, believe me.
Believe it or not, locating server farms near, or in, the arctic is an ongoling trend. Microsoft was rumored to be looking into a server farm in Siberia, but nothing came of it. however, Google began a server farm in Finland in 2009.
Is the future of server farms to be the arctic? Look's like it.
