Title:
SmartQool - Cooling Energy Reduction for Mission Critical Facilities
Agreement Number:
954179
Agreement Value:
$90,259.00
Agreement Date:
Jul 13, 2020 - Mar 31, 2021
Description:
Ever increasing data growth due to the changing market dynamics (work from home due to COVID-19, 5G and IoT connections etc.) is significantly impacting the energy utilization and its resulting costs for medium data centers (>2000 racks and <10000 racks) as well as for large data centers (>10000 racks). Cooling energy consumption is currently the second largest cost driver for such data centers. Our solution will provide an AI & Machine Learning based solution, that will continuously sync up all the cooling equipment (including CRAC units, HVACs, Chillers etc.) at the data centers to optimize the air flow and the equipment utilization thus resulting in ~25%+ cooling energy cost reduction.
