Data Center Cooling

Modern digital infrastructure faces conflicting demands: the need for continuous, massive power for compute loads, and the simultaneous need for extensive data center cooling to combat the heat generated by that power. In a traditional “siloed” design, cooling systems often account for up to 40% of total facility electricity consumption. This creates a compounding inefficiency where electricity is purchased twice: once to run the servers, and again to mechanically cool them. Furthermore, relying on grid-dependent electrical chillers exposes mission-critical operations to price volatility and stability risks, while significantly inflating the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) metric.

adaptive solution

The MetisPowerChill™ (MPC) architecture resolves the inefficiency of siloed systems by treating power and cooling as a unified ecosystem. Instead of venting valuable thermal energy into the atmosphere, the system captures exhaust heat and converts it directly into chilled water.

Operational Workflow:

Generation: Powered by our core data center power solutions, MPG Series extra low-emission gas turbines generate reliable, continuous electricity for the IT load.
Capture: The Integrated Exhaust System captures thermal energy that would typically be wasted.
Conversion: The MPE Exhaust-Driven Chiller utilizes this thermal flow to drive the refrigeration cycle, replacing the heavy electrical load of mechanical compressors.
Cooling: High-capacity chilled water is delivered to the data hall for mission-critical data center cooling, effectively decoupling thermal management costs from grid electricity rates.

Resilience

Engineered for thermal extremes, the system maintains a stable 1.17 PUE even at 105°F (40°C), eliminating the cooling capacity loss common in standard air-cooled chillers during heatwaves.

Autonomy

Driven by recaptured exhaust heat rather than grid electricity, the cooling loop is immune to utility price spikes, peak demand charges, and grid instability.

Efficiency

Utilizing the fuel source twice, once for power, once for cooling, raises overall system efficiency to ~54%, drastically lowering the facility’s carbon intensity per rack.
