Getting more out of each drop with new cooling methods


PETALING JAYA: The Guidelines for Sustainable Development of Data Centres issued by the Investment, Trade and Industry Ministry (Miti) contains a metric called Water Usage Effectiveness (WUE), which is defined as the ratio of the data centre water consumption divided by the energy consumed by IT equipment.

In the guidelines, Miti said project proponents should avoid water stressed areas by taking into account the Water Stress Index (WSI) of the proposed site, which should be less than 0.8 in Peninsular Malaysia.
