Where the crew lives
The data centre is going up in Kvarnsveden, on the grounds of the former Kvarnsveden paper mill, north of Borlänge town centre. The town centre is about 8 minutes away by car, and Falun, Säter and Gagnef under half an hour. The drive times in the list below are estimated with OpenStreetMap, without traffic, rush hour or winter conditions.
Most crews will live in Borlänge, which has the most apartments, shops and places to eat, and it is the natural base for crews staying a long time. Falun is about 24 minutes away. Säter, Gagnef and Hedemora are options when little is available closer.
A project crew often needs several apartments to rent in Borlänge or the towns around, ideally in the same area, so they can drive in together and share work vans. We search and map homes from the site address and plan around your shifts, your vehicles and how long you stay.
According to ByggPartner, EcoDataCenter is building several data halls in Kvarnsveden over time, and Bravida plans to work on the installations until the first quarter of 2028. For electricians, fitters and other trades working here for months, a furnished apartment is a calmer option than a hotel booked night by night.

Hotel, site cabins or apartments in Borlänge?
Bravida plans to work on the installations in Kvarnsveden until the first quarter of 2028, so many crews will stay in Borlänge for a long time. Over that span, life after the shift counts for more than the first few nights. The article below compares site cabins with housing.
Questions & answers
What companies ask.
Where is the shortest commute to the Kvarnsveden site?
Borlänge town centre is about 8 minutes away by car, estimated with OpenStreetMap without traffic. Falun, Säter and Gagnef are 24 to 27 minutes away and work well when little is available in Borlänge.
How do you plan the homes around shift work?
We split the crew across the homes based on the shift plan you send us. Everyone has their own bedroom, so night workers can sleep undisturbed during the day.
Is there parking for work vans at the homes?
We state the parking for each home before you decide, including space for vans. If the crew runs several work vans, we look first in the residential areas and smaller towns around Borlänge, where parking is easier.
How does the crew wash and dry workwear in winter?
Workwear is washed at home in each apartment. Winters in Dalarna are cold, so we also look at space to dry clothes and boots when we assess the homes. If you have specific rules for washing protective clothing, we agree on them with you before the crew moves in.
Which airport is closest?
Dala Airport near Borlänge is about 19 minutes from the site, estimated with OpenStreetMap without traffic. Check the current flights before you plan rotations, and we factor in the travel route when we choose the homes.
What if the crew changes size or the project is extended?
We look for more homes in the same area when the crew grows. If the work runs longer, we ask the landlords to extend the leases and look for new homes where needed. A lease is signed for each home, with a notice period matched to the length of the project.
