#DC2HEAT: Wie optimiert KI die Kühlinfrastruktur in Rechenzentren? 🤔 Der Frage ist das Forschungsprojekt DC2HEAT auf den Grund gegangen und hat ein Interview mit Dr.-Ing. Thomas Weber, Co-Founder & CSO bei etalytics, geführt. 🎙    💡 𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬  etalytics entwickelt KI-gestützte Softwarelösungen zur Optimierung von Wärme-, Kälte und Lüftungssystemen. Mit der etaONE®-Plattform analysieren und optimieren Unternehmen ihre Energieflüsse in Echtzeit, identifizieren Einsparpotenziale und passen Betriebsstrategien automatisch an – ohne zusätzliche Hardware. So senken sie ihren Energieverbrauch, CO₂-Emissionen und Kosten erheblich, während die Betriebssicherheit jederzeit gewährleistet bleibt. Im Interview spricht Dr.-Ing. Thomas Weber über: 🎙️ Die Aufgabe von KI in der Steuerung - einfach erklärt an dem Beispiel eines Dirigenten 🎙️ Wo die Grenzen bisheriger Ansätze liegen und wie ihre KI-gesteuerte Steuerung diese Grenzen überwindet 🎙️ Wie sie Bedenken und Skepsis gegenübertreten Das vollständige Interview gibt es hier: 👉 https://lnkd.in/ea2iGaza 𝐃𝐂𝟐𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐓 Das Forschungsprojekt zeigt, wie die Abwärme aus Rechenzentren als Energiequelle genutzt werden kann, um fossile Energieträger zu vermeiden und den klimafreundlichen Betrieb zu fördern. Das Projekt wird durch das Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz, nukleare Sicherheit und Verbraucherschutz (BMUV) im Programm KI-Leuchttrume für Umwelt, Klima, Natur und Ressourcen gefördert.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝘀 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 At last week's House of Energy e.V. Congress in Frankfurt, one thing became clear: Artificial intelligence has firmly arrived in the energy industry – but how we use it will determine its true impact.   🔹 𝗜𝗻 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸, 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗖𝗘𝗢 & 𝗖𝗼-𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿, Dr. Niklas Panten, 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱: “AI – Curse or Blessing for Energy Consumption?” AI has the potential to either waste energy or make energy systems radically more efficient. At etalytics, we ensure that AI saves more energy than it consumes. Our AI-driven energy management platform boosts industrial energy efficiency by 𝟮𝟬% 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝟱𝟬% – leveraging real-time data analytics to optimize energy use. The result: lower consumption, reduced costs, and greater sustainability.   🔹 𝗜𝗻 𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗸𝗲𝘆𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗲, Joachim Albersmann (𝗣𝘄𝗖) 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁: AI can drive the energy transition forward—when applied correctly. Learning from other industries, setting clear boundaries, and ensuring responsible use are key to unlocking its full potential.   🔹 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆: AI is a tool, not a magic fix. It can accelerate the energy transition, but only if we use it wisely. It must be transparent, efficient, and responsible – and that’s exactly what we focus on at etalytics.   A big thank you to House of Energy e.V. for bringing together thought leaders and innovators for such important discussions! 💡   #EnergyTransition #ArtificialIntelligence #Sustainability #HouseOfEnergy #ISH2024 #AI

Am 20. März stehe ich auf der Bühne des House of Energy Kongress, der parallel zur ISH Messe in Frankfurt stattfindet, in Forum 3. Mein Thema:  KI – Fluch oder Segen für den Energieverbrauch?  Künstliche Intelligenz ist ein zweischneidiges Schwert: Sie benötigt enorme Rechenleistung – und damit viel Energie. Doch gleichzeitig kann sie genau dabei helfen, Energie einzusparen und effizienter zu nutzen. Wie lösen wir dieses Dilemma? In meinem Vortrag zeige ich, wie wir mit etalytics KI so einsetzen, dass sie mehr Energie einspart, als sie verbraucht. Vielen Dank an House of Energy e.V. für die Einladung! Ich freue mich auf spannende Gespräche und neue Impulse. Bis zum 20. März in Frankfurt!  #EnergyEfficiency #Energiewende #Digitalisierung #KI #HouseOfEnergy #ISH2025 #etalytics 

Getting creative in London - Fish 🐟 , Chips 🍟 and Datacenters 🏢 I'm in London with my good friend and colleague David Kelm to attend Datacenter World and connect with customers. One of the highlights of our visit was the panel discussion "Transforming Datacenter Infrastructure: Embracing Edge, Colocation, and Hyperscale Solutions" yesterday afternoon with Yashnath Issur, Mike Hoy, Stephen Douglas and Nabeel Mahmood hosted by Mark Gusakov. It stood out with a great mix of insightful takeaways and entertaining moments and was one of the best panels I have seen in the last years. Great work you guys! The discussion on the role of data centers as active components in the distribution grid via flexible onsite generation as well as flexible IT load was particularly interesting—a crucial topic for the future of energy-efficient and sustainable infrastructure where we as etalytics can support 💪 With shortage of power supply the industry is getting creative to keep growth on a high level 🧐 Looking forward to more exciting conversations and connections today! 🚀 #DatacenterWorld #London #EdgeComputing #Colocation #Hyperscale #EnergyEfficiency #Networking

They’re both pictured here with Lisa Olmert and Sarah Hainzl. We only managed to get these four together on camera, but there are more incredible women at etalytics contributing to our success every day. In fact, while this picture was taken, Alicja Niekrawietz was representing us at Datacloud - a techoraco brand in Brussels. Their expertise and contributions are helping us develop solutions that make a real impact for our clients and the planet. In an industry where progress never slows down, it’s great to have brilliant and diverse minds on board. Here’s to the women breaking barriers and proving that innovation knows no gender. #WomenInTech #IWD2025 #Sustainability #EnergyEfficiency #etalytics

🌍 World Energy Efficiency Day – Efficiency First, Flexibility Second🌱 Recently, energy flexibility has become a hot topic in many industries. With demand response schemes and utilizing on-site generation, electrical and thermal storage, and load shifting, we’ve unlocked huge cost-saving potential. The key to making this work? Predictive control strategies that adjust to fluctuating renewable energy sources and dynamic energy prices, especially in energy-intensive systems like cooling, heating, and ventilation. This is exactly where AI-driven control optimization comes in, and we’re proud to implement it across a variety of industries. But here’s the thing: Before we jump into introducing flexibility, we must first focus on ENERGY EFFICIENCY. This World Energy Efficiency Day should be a reminder that there’s still untapped potential to make energy systems more efficient. In our ongoing optimization projects, we continue to witness incredible amounts of energy waste due to rigid, conventional control systems. These systems don’t adapt to changing variables or properly orchestrate energy converters in cooling, heating, and ventilation systems. The results speak for themselves: We’re literally burning energy and money. Take, for example, the success we’ve had with numerous projects in data centers, automotive, and the pharma/chemical industries. We’re excited to share next week a new success story for AI-driven ventilation optimization that achieved almost 70% energy savings for a leading automotive manufacturer!  These aren’t just cost-saving projects—they’re reshaping energy usage in some of the most energy-hungry sectors of the automotive industry. By optimizing ventilation systems with AI, we’re helping our partners reduce carbon emissions, increase operational efficiency, and create smarter, more adaptive energy systems. And here’s the exciting part: Energy Efficiency and Energy Flexibility go hand in hand. By combining dynamic predictive optimization with real-time energy pricing and peak load management, we’re not just reducing costs; we’re improving the overall integration of renewable energy into the grid. In the case of ventilation, think of the air mass and building envelope as a massive thermal storage tank. By operating within set air quality limits, we sometimes see that stepping away from the most energy-efficient operation can actually increase overall efficiency—particularly when we factor in grid-supportive behavior and renewable energy integration. 🌱 The future of energy is about balancing these elements for a more sustainable and cost-effective world. 

London Calling: See You at Data Centre World!    Next week, I'll be heading to Data Centre World London with David Kelm to explore one of the big questions shaping the industry right now: "How can #AI help #DataCentres cut energy consumption, optimize operations, and reduce carbon emissions?"   With rising energy demand, growing AI workloads, and the push for net-zero, it's clear that doing nothing isn't an option. The good news? Solutions already exist today.    We're looking forward to talking about:  ✅ Real-world applications of AI for energy efficiency  ✅ Digital twins & data-driven optimization in action  ✅ What’s next for data centres in a net-zero world    Are you attending too? Drop me a message - let's connect! See you on 12th & 13th March at #DCWLondon.
