Warm data centers warm the farm

Supported by business in the city of Cleveland, Ohio, the Foundry Project will allow to use allocated data centers heat for heating of fish farms. It is planned to build underground data center the area is about 1858 square meters, the heat of which will support in the pond fisheries of the optimum temperature to 23.11 degrees Celsius. A fish farm that reproduce the conditions of the Mediterranean sea is only the first of the planned projects. This will allow less to import fish, growing it in local conditions, and using for heating the heat that is usually released, benefiting human civilization, its industry and agriculture.
Some of the features of the new project of rational use of heat energy reviewed by David Chernikov (David Chernicoff) published on the resource ZDNet article "Using data center waste heat to warm a fish farm".
The founders of the project believe that after the appearance of wanting to build a data center it can start to work after six months. The place is attractive for most operators — it is located among three different 100-Gigabyte networks, which means access to a new data center to incredibly high-performance network.



Idea Foundry Project is to create in an urban environment full ecosystem. In addition to the data center and fish farm also plans to use this approach to heat orchards, sheep farm, farmers markets and even incubators for the arts and technology. The main priority is complete safety of the project.
Thus, over time, the excess heat produced by high technology, can find a bit unexpected application. They will be used in agriculture, providing humanity with food. So the new technology will help the ancient technologies to become more efficient.


If the project will be a large-scale, it will not be for nothing waste heat from data centers, and agriculture will get another and almost free a wonderful source of much-needed heat. This allows you to grow species and varieties of fruit-bearing trees, characterized by a hot climate. Therefore, all the advantages of the new technology are obvious. However, in order that it was implemented, underground data centers have to build directly under the farms, gardens and ponds of fish farms. published
