AIL Sound Walls control unwanted noise from data centers as well as from applications further up their energy-generation supply chain.
Generative AI has become the big driver in the exponential growth of data centers throughout North America and around the world. As this Morning Brew article points out:
- AI requires more power to carry out its computationally intensive tasks, including machine learning and quickly retrieving answers to myriad queries.
- Generative AI, like the large language models that fuel OpenAI’s ChatGPT, can be 100 times larger than other AI models — needing even more electricity.
That increased processing power comes from graphics processing units, or GPUs. These chips reach 176 degrees Fahrenheit when running at maximum power, which requires robust solutions to prevent data centers from overheating. Those cooling solutions generate a lot of noise.
The incredible energy demands of these mega data centers are also driving investments in the electrical grids and their renewable or non-renewable energy-generation sources.
Lightweight and versatile AIL Sound Walls are a preferred solution for cooling towers, chillers, backup generators, microgrids and BESS systems.
