Increased Power Consumption Due to the Advancement of Digital Technology
The rapid increase in data processing and the rising power consumption of data centers, driven by the advancement of digital technology, pose a significant challenge for the energy industry. The latest IT equipment is becoming increasingly high-performance, resulting in greater heat generation per unit. To adequately cool this heat output, additional power consumption is currently required.
Reasons Why Immersion Cooling is Needed
High Cooling Efficiency
Immersion cooling is characterized by its ability to directly cool servers, the source of heat generation, unlike existing air or water cooling methods. It can efficiently manage increasing data transmission volumes due to the advancement of generative AI and the increased heat density resulting from improved processing capabilities of electronic devices.
Contribution to Power Consumption Reduction
A significant portion of the power consumption in existing air-cooled data centers (DC) is used for air conditioning. By adopting immersion cooling, the power consumed by air conditioning can be reduced.
