Data center operators building new systems can choose from nine categories of cooling technology. Innovative cooling equipment has minimized energy and water use and the average PUE for air-cooled and water-cooled systems.
Water use has become a critical element of a sustainability strategy. It is a location-specific issue: local climate and resources and the data center design will determine the water use profile of the facility.
This webinar explores low water use cooling system innovations and water management strategies that can help operators navigate the sustainability and reliability implications associated with water use.
Air-assisted direct liquid cooling systems offer trade-offs that make them attractive to operators looking to address server cooling and rack density challenges β and are relatively easy to install and maintain.
This report analyzes how colocation companies are improving sustainability through innovative approaches to cooling infrastructure, energy efficiency, renewable energy procurement, construction and more.
Siting colocation data centers in central business districts can have real advantages. So why does it happen so rarely? This report, based on interviews with providers, examines the operational challenges, and solutions for overcoming them.
Direct liquid cooling delivers operational savings and sustainability benefits. Most data center operators predict a substantial increase in adoption - and yet, concerns over the cost, leaks, and system failures persist.
The European Commissionβs proposed recast of its Energy Efficiency Directive promises to transform how operators manage and report energy performance and sustainability in Europe.
Shifts in business expectations and technical requirements are moving data center operators towards direct liquid cooling. There are hurdles to overcome, but many in the industry expect this evolution to be just a matter of time.
As part of a sustainability strategy, focused attention on water use, circularity requirements and data center siting / design specifications will contribute significantly to sustainable data center operations.
Once-through water heat rejection systems, also known as once-through cooling systems, are energy and water efficient. This report explores different designs and provides real-world case studies of colocation providers using them.
Extreme weather events have become significantly more common and more severe in recent years β a pattern likely to continue for many decades to come. This report discusses the implications for data center owners and operators.
