Sustainability remains central to data centre design The deployment runs on 100 % renewable energy and uses directto-chip liquid cooling to reduce water consumption. According to Spencer, this is particularly important as the sector faces growing scrutiny.
“ Sustainability has always been central to our designs, and it will remain so,” Spencer insists.“ Direct liquid cooling to the GPUs allows us to avoid the heat waste inherent in a traditional air-cooled system by taking the cooling directly to the chip.
“ Efficiency improves, system utilisation improves and we move well beyond the performance of conventional data centre configurations.“ We are strong advocates for this technology and we will be deploying the same approach across our other developments in the UK.
“ As scrutiny of the sector’ s environmental impact grows, our commitment to running on 100 % renewable energy, supported by HVO-powered generators and to reducing water consumption through this cooling approach is designed into every facility from the outset.” datacentremagazine. com 25
