Unlocking the value of waste heat from cloud compute.

About us

Data Centres already emit more carbon than the entire aviation industry, and with AI fuelling a new boom in data centre construction, they will consume almost 10% of global electricity by 2030. heata believes this to be incompatible with a Net Zero future. Backed by British Gas, heata has reimagined the data centre as a network of distributed servers inside people’s homes, where they capture the waste heat from data processing and use it to provide people who need it with free hot water. heata reduces energy use by 80% and helps people in fuel poverty at the same time. With a network of heata units installed in homes throughout the UK, companies are already joining the heata network to reduce the carbon footprint of their IT whilst giving back to their communities.

    Really excited to share the results of a sustainable hackathon collaboration with Microsoft’s MAIDAP (Microsoft AI Development Acceleration Programme) team. The Challenge Could the MAIDAP team beat Microsoft Azure’s average carbon intensity in the UK simply by shifting workloads in space and time across the heata network? Read the blog to find out the answer! 👉 https://lnkd.in/eXTqiPgm — Big thanks to Aarti Dwivedi, Chester Curme, Derenik Haghverdian, Ph.D., Juhi Paralkar, Natalie Isak, Nick Glaze, Omisa J., and Soundararajan Srinivasan, we were hugely impressed by the capabilities of the team and their enthusiasm for heata’s mission and vision. Thanks also to Jen Fox for facilitating. Chris Jordan, Michael Paisley, Charlie Beharrell. #Heata #GreenCloud #AIforSustainability #FinOps #GreenOps #DistributedComputing

    Nice to share this short film about heata made as part of Innovate UK’s Net Zero Heat programme. Find out how heata started, and how we’re reimagining a data centre so that the waste heat byproduct of data processing can be reused to provide free hot water for families 👇

    We're excited to present the fifth video in the Innovate UK Net Zero Heat programme’s cohort series, featuring heata.   The Net Zero Heat programme accelerates innovation to help the UK transition away from gas for heating. The programme’s cohort includes UK companies crucial to this goal, working together to overcome growth barriers. Heating buildings accounts for 36% of CO2 emissions in Europe, with poorly insulated buildings causing higher emissions. Air bricks contribute up to 15% of a home’s heat loss, wasting 34,000 GWh/year in the UK. Heata began as an innovation project with British Gas, focused on helping those in fuel poverty. Inspired by the waste heat generated by Bitcoin mining, they explored whether that heat could be repurposed. By attaching powerful servers to domestic hot water cylinders, the waste heat is reused to create free hot water for the households. Switching from Bitcoin mining to general cloud computing, their distributed data centre enables groundbreaking sustainable compute with social impact. >> Watch the full video here: https://ow.ly/t2kO50TzP6q #NZHeat #Heata #retrofit #decarbonisation #energy #netzero #domesticheating #innovation #fuelpoverty

    Why waste heat? 🔥 Computers get hot, and cooling thousands of servers in data centres requires huge amounts of energy, which in turn is responsible for huge amounts of carbon. 😎 At heata our decentralised network reuses the excess heat from cloud compute for social impact (instead of adding more carbon into our environment). 🏠 By putting our servers in UK homes, we can reuse our waste heat to reduce hot water bills and significantly reduce the carbon impact of processing. 💧 Data centres that use water for cooling might use anywhere between 1 million and 5 million gallons of water a day. We think there has to be a smarter way. Learn more 👉 https://hubs.la/Q02RCsxX0

    At heata we take the waste heat from cloud compute and put it to work. It's not just an idea, it's happening right now with 100 UK homes benefiting from free hot water. ⏪ In 2022 we won an Innovate UK Smart Grant to test heata units in the field. 🏠 Hosts like Kev (pictured here) joined the trial, excited by the opportunity to improve the energy efficiency of their homes, and with his heata unit he has done just that! ⏩ With more forward thinking businesses partnering with heata to handle their cloud compute workloads, it’s exciting to be bringing climate and social impact to cloud compute by supporting people like Kev with the byproduct of our processing. Learn more 👉 https://hubs.la/Q02RcBmD0 or send us a DM. 📷 by Luigi Avantaggiato #innovation #future #startups #cloudcompute #cloudcomputing #sustainability #socialimpact #climate #uk #3drendering

    Happy heata Friday! 😅 It's been a busy first week of the month at heata HQ, with August and sunny weather already feeling like a while ago! So we'd thought we'd rewind a week and share some of the impact heata rendering had in August! ⏩ Shout out to forward thinking studios like bloc digital 099 creative  AnotherArtist.co The Ruby Cube LtdRenato Neto  (++ others) who worked with heata to get fast, reliable 3D rendering with a huge social and environmental impact. 🤯 Here is the cumulative impact of these projects:   🙌  47 renders completed. 🖼 Over 55,000 frames rendered. 💷 £211 household bill saving across heata network homes. 🌍 475.1KG of CO2 saved vs using a regular render farm. 🚿 21.3 Tonnes of free hot water provided across the heata network. 🆓 Or 183.5 days of free hot water to heata homes 🤟 We're thrilled to be at the forefront of innovative solutions harnessing waste heat from cloud compute. You can learn more about how we do it here >  https://lnkd.in/dWJ8ZvmB (claim £100 free render credits and 50% off your first 3D animation while you're there 😉) 🤝 If you have a 3D project you want to work with heata on, we'd love to talk >  https://lnkd.in/e8BgHH59
