For a Data Centre in India, Cost per Megawatt roughly ranges between ₹40 crore to ₹45 crore (~$4.8 million to $5.4 million USD). If you break down that cost per Megawatt, the capital isn’t just going toward a concrete building. The cost is majorly into 3 areas:
But the bigger question is what is the cost that we as human beings paying towards technology development? It should not be the very thing that gives us life - not nature!
So how can we find a common ground between safeguarding nature and technology development? First of all, is it possible to achieve that?
The answer to this question, to be honest, is a subjective one. Because there’s always a sustainable way to do things. But do the ecosystem players involved in this AI rush are thinking in these lines is the answer to this question.
Few founders are actually thinking about “Responsible Innovation”. Like to mention a few:
ZutaCore is famous for its “Silicon to Sky” waterless cooling architecture. Their HyperCool system utilizes a specialized, non-conductive, eco-safe dielectric fluid in a closed-loop, two-phase direct-to-chip system.
Perstorp is a major chemical innovator that recently launched the Synmerse™ DC and Synplate™ DC lines. These are synthetic, ester-based dielectric fluids explicitly engineered to be completely PFAS-free and readily biodegradable.
GH2 solar is building Green Hydrogen manufacturing plant to supply energy to evolving industries like data centers, shipping, larger supply chain fleet etc,
Companies like this and global collective collaboration towards “Responsible Innovation”, will take the human race forward by compromising on the essential nature to fuel technology innovation!
