Leveraging Heat as an Asset in Data Center Operations

The Data Center Frontier Show ·

2025/07/24

Every second an AI-enabled data center operates, it produces massive amounts of heat.Cooling needs are often thought of separately from heat, and for years, that is how systems were built. In most facilities, waste heat has to be managed, properly expelled, and is then forgotten. The heat may not be needed by the data center, but the question arises, ‘where else could this energy be put to use?’ What if energy use was viewed differently by data centers and the systems and institutions around them
