TLDR
BootyNet operates Data Centers globally, and we refuse to use water to cool our infrastructure, so we developed a system that uses air to cool our servers and towers.
The problem with water cooling
Most large-scale infrastructure relies on water cooling to manage heat output, drawing heavily on local water supplies in the process. BootyNet set out to solve this.
Our solution
We developed a solution to water cooling that performs equal to, or better than, industry-standard water cooling methods, without drawing on local water supplies.
The numbers
This sounds good, but what are the actual numbers?
- 0 litres used in tower cooling, annually
- 99.98% reduction in water usage compared to industry standard
- 100% of cooling handled by ambient air systems
- 100% of water goes to the community, not hungry servers
A note on location
Taupō Tower is situated directly in Lake Taupō. BootyNet’s zero-water cooling initiative is not related to this, and would apply regardless of tower location.
