Modern data centers have become the foundation of the digital economy: they power cloud services, online platforms, artificial intelligence, and thousands of business processes. But with this growth comes another challenge — energy consumption. Servers generate large amounts of heat that must be constantly removed to prevent overheating. Usually, this heat is simply wasted, while additional megawatts of electricity are consumed to cool the equipment. However, new approaches to data center modernization show that this “waste heat” can become a valuable resource for cities.
