Record temperatures in the Nordics are set to pose a threat to indirect free cooling processes, according to Aggreko. And if the temperatures in the UK right now are anything to go by, we can well believe it *melts onto desk.* Recent
Green data centres are a vital element in meeting global net-zero targets, with the Covid-19 pandemic helping to both accelerate digital transformation and bring awareness to these facilities’ green credentials. But do we now find ourselves in a state of sustainability vs
As data centre cost-efficiency and environmental performance come under intense scrutiny, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) plays a major role in ensuring facility optimisation, says Gordon Johnson, senior CFD manager at Subzero Engineering. Since 2015, we’ve kept track of the various savings we
Clinton Noble, sector manager for data centre power solutions at Finning UK & Ireland, outlines the key considerations when designing generator packages for data centre standby power. In November 2020, a telecommunications company unveiled 20 new data centres across the UK as
“A gale of creative economic destruction is blowing the roof off the conventional data centre economic model, revealing something altogether different”, says Alan Beresford, MD of data centre cooling experts EcoCooling. We asked Alan to elaborate upon this rather mysterious statement. There’s
With power densities among the hyperscalers continuing to snowball, how do operators go about meeting the cooling challenges of these ever-growing and varied power densities? Phil Smith, construction director UK at Vantage, tells us more. Power densities in the hyperscale data centre
As lockdown eases and mobile data use sees 4G and 5G consumption hot up to new records, O2 is rolling out brand new smart cooling technology to better control the temperature at its data centres and boost the efficiency of its network
When it comes to cooling your facility, could you be overspending? According to Anuraag Saxena, optimisation manager at EkkoSense, you probably are.
Are green IT and edge computing a match made in heaven we never even considered? David Craig, CEO at Iceotope explores why getting the edge ‘right’ can’t happen without green IT. IT equipment is fragile – exposing it to the elements will
With sustainability now a major differentiator in the data centre market, organisations must find ways to ensure their facility’s carbon footprint is kept to a minimum. With cooling the second largest consumer of power within a data centre, Marc Garner, VP, secure
