Underwater Data Center

Project Type: Self-Initiated

Project Description

Cooling systems consume nearly 40% of the energy used in traditional data centers, driving over $100 billion in operational costs each year and producing significant carbon emissions. With rising data demands, this approach is becoming both economically and environmentally unsustainable. This project proposes a modular underwater data center that uses seawater for passive cooling, featuring real-time monitoring and corrosion-resistant materials to deliver a cost-effective, low-latency solution for coastal areas.
