Telecity Using Natural Groundwater as Cooling System for Data Center
TelecityGroup, a European data center services provider, is installing a cooling system that will use natural groundwater for free-cooling capacity at its Amsterdam data center. The Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES) will push water warmed by excess heat from the data center floor to the natural underground wells. There it will be chilled in the winter and used in the summer to cool the data center. “TelecityGroup is dedicated to driving innovation in the industry and maximizing the energy efficiency of our operations by developing solutions that complement regional conditions,” said Alexandra Schless, Telecity’s managing director for the Netherlands.
