From Water Consumption to Water Stewardship: New Risks Emerging for Data Center Cooling Systems

Start
The explosive growth of artificial intelligence (AI) continues to drive unprecedented investment in hyperscale data centers. In response to increasing scrutiny over water consumption, many operators have embraced advanced cooling technologies, including closed-loop and reclaimed water systems designed to significantly reduce freshwater demand. While these technologies represent an important step toward more sustainable operations, recent events demonstrate that water-related risk extends well…
