Elementica includes several new and innovative solutions for cost-effective and environmentally friendly data and computing center capacity.
The new facility covers 7 main floors. Lower level includes back-up power and heat re-use systems, including air and water circulation. Middle floors will house generators and 5 floors of data center space a part from the electric power station.
Top floor will incorporate a grow-house and possibly new office space, with a great view of the surrounding harbor and industrial setting. We aim to grow edibles (“powered by your data”) and serve them in our own café, open to the public.
Back-up redundancy
Elementica will house several of Bahnhof’s tried-and-tested safety features, like argon gas containers for pushing out oxygen-filled air if necessary, separated rooms for increased security and several power back-up systems – from giant swing wheels and battery power, to sea water coolant systems and diesel generators as a last resource for increased redundancy.
First Dig
Elementica has started the first phase if its construction; laying pipes from/to the near-by city heating plant for heat exchange access. This is an integral part necessary for our heat recovery solution, so we can lower our customers’ electricity bills.
