What Tussa does

Tussa is a privately held Norwegian regional utility and IT services group headquartered in Hovdebygda, Norway, operating through four wholly-owned subsidiaries — Tussa Kraft (hydroelectric power generation), Tussa Energi, Tussa IKT (IT and communications services), and Tussa Installasjon (electrical installations). Founded in 1949, the group operates 28 wholly-owned hydroelectric power plants plus 1 co-owned plant and 1 bioenergy facility, producing renewable electricity sufficient to supply more than 41,000 residential homes annually, with current hydro capacity of 60 MW to be expanded to a planned 150 MW through the Tussa II project (construction 2026-2030). Its regional footprint covers the Møre og Romsdal county (Sunnmøre, including Ørsta, Ålesund, Åndalsnes, Herøy and Fosnavåg), with the group certified under ISO 14001 (environmental management, all subsidiaries) and ISO 27001 (information security, Tussa IKT, originally 2020, annually recertified).

The commercial offer spans four revenue streams. Electricity and energy is sold as recurring supply to residential and business customers from wholly renewable generation. Telecommunications revenue comes from Tussafiber broadband, Telia Play-based Tussa TV, and telephony. IT services, the highest-margin stream, is delivered through Tussa IKT and includes public cloud on Microsoft Azure, hybrid cloud through Tussa's own data center, Microsoft 365 management, backup and Copilot training, a managed security portfolio (MDR-SOC 24/7 powered by NTT Security's SamurAI, Trygg Klient endpoint security, Trygg Trafikk firewall, Passordbank, vulnerability scanning, and Grunnpakke for SMBs), and colocation / server leasing at the Tussa Datasenter in Ørsta/Herøy. Installation services cover building power, EV charging, solar, smart home, heat pumps, fiber and 24/7 emergency electrical work, with a maritime electro and ship electronics specialisation consolidated in Fosnavåg.

Go-to-market is sales-led and regionally concentrated: direct enterprise IT sales with named account managers, a kundesenter (70 04 63 00), physical offices, self-service portals (Di side, Tussa KundeApp), and demand-gen through breakfast seminars (Frukostmøter), the annual Teknomagi conference co-hosted with Nordea, and the IT-Cruise event with Nordea and NTT Security. Pricing is predominantly quote-based; only Microsoft 365 Copilot training has disclosed rates (5,900-9,900 NOK). Customer concentration is diversified across residential households and regional SMB/mid-market enterprise (BNP Paribas Leasing Solutions, Tyrholm & Farstad, Volda Campus Sparebank 1 Arena, Plasto, Kroken Gruppen), and 251-500 employees service this regional book.

Direct peers

• Agder Energi: Agder Energi is a regional Norwegian power and telecom group operating hydropower, grid, and broadband businesses. Merged into Å Energi in 2022; comparable to Tussa in vertical integration of generation and connectivity.
• BKK AS: BKK is a Norwegian regional energy and infrastructure group combining power generation, grid operations, telecom (BKK Digitek/Eviny), and electrification services — the closest structural analogue to Tussa's vertically integrated utility + IT model.
• Lyse Energi: Lyse is a Norwegian regional utility that owns fiber (Altibox), hydropower, and telecom businesses. Comparable to Tussa in combining regional renewable energy with broadband and digital services to households and businesses.
• Skagerak Energi: Skagerak Energi is a regional Norwegian utility group producing hydropower and supplying electricity, broadband, and electrical services — directly comparable to Tussa in scope of regional utility offerings.
• Å Energi: Å Energi was formed from the merger of Agder Energi and Glitre Energi, creating a major Norwegian regional utility with hydropower, grid, and telecom assets — a scaled analog of Tussa's regional utility-plus-services model.
• Green Mountain ASA: Green Mountain is a Norwegian colocation data center operator that explicitly markets 100% renewable hydropower-powered facilities — directly comparable to Tussa's renewable-powered data center positioning and ESG value proposition.
• Lefdal Mine Datacenter: Lefdal Mine Datacenter is a Norwegian colocation facility operated inside a former mine, marketed on renewable hydropower and cost-efficient cooling. Directly comparable to Tussa Datasenter as a Norwegian renewable-powered data center alternative.

Broad incumbents

• Statkraft: Statkraft is Europe's largest renewable energy generator and a state-owned Norwegian incumbent. It does not offer Tussa's IT/telecom stack but competes in Norwegian hydropower capacity development and wholesale power markets.
• Hafslund: Hafslund is one of Norway's largest power groups operating hydropower and the largest grid company (Hafslund Eco). Comparable as a major incumbent in Norwegian renewable generation and regional energy supply, though without Tussa's IT services focus.
• Atea ASA: Atea is the leading Nordic IT infrastructure and managed services provider with strong Norwegian presence. Comparable to Tussa IKT as a regional/Nordic competitor in managed IT, cloud, and cybersecurity services to businesses.
