As global demand for cloud connectivity and high-performance computing continues to grow, the development and expansion of data centres are accelerating rapidly.<\/p>\n<p>However, with this growth comes a significant challenge: energy consumption.<\/p>\n<p>A typical AI-focused data centre consumes as much electricity as 100,000 households. The largest hyperscale facilities currently under construction are projected to consume up to 20 times more. According to the International Energy Agency\u2019s (IEA) report AI and Energy 2025, data centres accounted for approximately 1.5% of global electricity use in 2024, equivalent to 415 terawatt-hours (TWh). By 2030, this figure is expected to more than double, reaching around 945 TWh.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-8c003c1\" data-id=\"8c003c1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0c2a574 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0c2a574\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Cooling and Waste Heat: An Opportunity for Efficiency<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8ead472 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8ead472\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Up to 40% of a data centre\u2019s energy consumption is used for cooling, resulting in substantial quantities of waste heat.
