AirTrunk explores quantum cooling to cut data centre water use
AirTrunk is exploring quantum cooling for data centres with Emergence Quantum.
AirTrunk announced Tuesday a partnership with Emergence Quantum. Emergence Quantum is a spinout from Sydney University.
The partners will explore cryogenic cooling technology. The technology cools quantum computers.
It works at very low temperatures. Data centres currently use large amounts of water and energy.
This raises concerns for the environment. Cryogenic cooling could reduce both needs.
The partnership will develop this technology for AirTrunk's next generation facilities.
