ECL, a data center-as-a-service pioneer, made waves with the launch of the world's first off-grid, sustainable, modular, hydrogen-powered data center in Mountain View, California. This facility, known as ECL-MV1, operates 24/7 with zero emissions and a negative water footprint, showcasing a new era of environmentally friendly data centers. Led by industry veterans from tech giants like Facebook and Microsoft, ECL raised $10 million to support its phased development of hydrogen-powered modular data centers, emphasizing sustainability and innovation. In a significant move to expand its sustainable data center footprint, ECL announced the construction of the 1 gigawatt AI Factory data center, ECL TerraSite-TX1, in Texas. This site, designed for AI technology development, will provide space for AI cloud and traditional cloud services, with hydrogen supplied through pipelines to ensure sustainability and efficiency. The company's unique build-to-order approach allows for customization to meet specific customer requirements, attracting tenants like Lambda, who praise the transformative potential of ECL's technology in advancing AI operations. ECL's commitment to sustainability extends to its high energy efficiency, with a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) under 1.1, rivaling the largest cloud data centers. The company's innovative cooling system and use of hydrogen fuel cells contribute to a 10x increase in energy efficiency and a 7x improvement in data density per rack, catering to AI's high-density demands. With plans for future expansion and a focus on dense, modular design, ECL aims to revolutionize the data center industry with its sustainable hydrogen-powered facilities.
