Hi again Folks.
Small scalable Data Centre used to heat public swimming pool, could do other heating too….
Heat generated by a huge Amazon data centre in south-west Dublin is to be used in homes in the area – the first scheme of its kind in Ireland. pic.twitter.com/bXNPuEgKJ8

This is something Green ISP has been considering for years.
Taking the Data to where the Energy is like small Hydro or Solar, or in this case to help with cooling, take the data to where the heating is required?
With innovations and improvements in local connectivity and cloud or container based computing scaling is so much easier to do.
As Mark Bjornsgaard says “We built a small Data Centre in Exmouth leisure centre.
Most normal data centres waste the heat that the computers generate. We capture ours and we give it for free to the swimming pool to heat the pool,”
What a great idea, we need more innovations like this.
All the best.
