Cooling with Seawater: What is Google doing?
Google's most efficient data center is using seawater for cooling in Hamina, Finland, and does it in a unique way that might allow others to learn and follow their example.
First Lake Cooling Project in the USA
The first lake source cooling project in the United States became active in 2000; it has remained operational to save energy, maintenance and reduce environmental impact. The project design, steps to completion and roadblocks by environmentalists are all part of this presentation to understand what is good, better and best for the environment.
How does global warming affect design?
As temperatures rise throughout the world, subtle changes and choices are begining to drive energy savings and environmental sustainability. Discover how the choice of location, types of cooling, and changing environmental conditions are affecting the world around us.
Net-Zero Energy Data Center
Data centers consume more energy than most other buildings, and attempting to run a data center without energy from the grid might be considered impossible - until we did it. This presentation walks through many of the options available, the limitations, and how the data center became a net-zero energy space.
A Review of Green Building Design Standards
LEED, Green Globes, EnergyStar and more are explained and compared along with sample projects.
Data Centers: Where the Cloud and Internet Live
From Google to Microsoft, 5G to blockchain, selfies to self-driving, the internet is expected to become an even bigger part of our lives - and it's all supported by a growing legion of mammoth facilities known as data centers. Our digital footprint grows phenomenally...
