As AI drives soaring power densities, Direct Liquid Cooling (DLC) is becoming essential—but airflow containment still plays a critical supporting role. Explore why hot/cold aisle containment remains a key efficiency layer in hyperscale data centers.
Discover how optimized containment strategies and sustainable Composite AisleFrame (CAF) systems can reduce data center carbon emissions by up to 4,299 kg CO₂ per frame while improving operational efficiency and cutting costs.
Data centers consume up to 50 times more energy than typical commercial buildings, driving an urgent need to adopt green building practices. While initial implementation costs are high, the long-term benefits—reduced operational expenses, decreased fossil fuel dependence, and enhanced brand perception—create a compelling case for both environmental and financial sustainability.
Data centers must transition from energy-intensive “white space” to sustainable green building designs to reduce environmental impact, cut long-term costs, and inspire positive change across industries through collective stakeholder action.
Learn how optimized containment systems help data centers balance the energy demands of AI and high-performance computing with environmental sustainability through efficient airflow management and reduced cooling costs.
Over the last few years and looking to the near future, the demand for data processing has soared exponentially at rates previously thought inconceivable. Goldman Sachs Research estimates that while data centres currently consume approximately 1-2% of the world’s overall power, this is expected to grow by 160% by the end of the decade, and 2022-2030 carbon emissions are predicted to double!

The potential risk of data centers becoming stranded assets due to their power-intensive nature. As data centers increasingly handle High-Performance Computing (HPC), facilities can be challenged when it comes to delivering the output demanded while balancing the economic viability with the needs of the environment.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software can help data centers anticipate cooling failures and optimize energy efficiency. Gordon Johnson takes a closer look at this powerful data center tool.
As power and heat loads continue to rise in data centers, efficient cooling is becoming increasingly challenging, with cooling responsible for up to 40% of a data center’s total energy consumption. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software creates a 3D model or digital twin of the data center, providing a detailed understanding of the complex interactions between airflow, heat removal, and cooling systems, enabling operators to make informed decisions to reduce energy consumption and improve overall cooling efficiency.
