Black & Veatch’s Post

Saw this comment below on a post and It can't be more true. The data center and EV movement is causing a major impact on the power we enjoy today. What is reliable today might not be reliable tomorrow. We need to focus on a push towards more distributed energy for all aspects. #powerindepedence #microgrids #MESAsolutions #Naturalgas #getreadyitscoming Linkedin- "In today's rapidly evolving data center landscape, securing financing is no longer the primary hurdle. The real challenge lies in obtaining the necessary power infrastructure. To truly stand out, data centers must be backed by robust and reliable infrastructure".

Data centers are estimated to be responsible for up to 3% of global electricity consumption today and are projected to touch 4% by 2030. From an environmental perspective, this poses a significant challenge where #AirFilters can provide a solution ✅ The fact is that some products use 3x the energy of others – all while doing the same job. This is why switching to energy-saving air filters is one of the easiest, quickest and most sustainable ways of cutting energy usage in a data center.

The graph below shows US commercial power consumption with and without the state. Without Virginia, consumption was basically flat. # energy #power #datacenters #virginia #prospectresources

Today is International Data Center Day. Data centers are the backbone of our digital world. As digital demand soars, so does the urgency for more energy-efficient and sustainable data centers. Utilizing excess heat represents a massive potential in decarbonizing data centers. The solutions exist and we have the technology to recover excess heat from data centers and feed it back into the district heating grid – to reuse it to heat homes and businesses. ♻️ The technology is here, and the time is now. Curious to learn more about how to make data centers more sustainable by turning a byproduct into a benefit? 💡Check out our solutions.   #DataCenterDay #SustainableTech #GreenDataCenters #Innovation
