Floating renewables to power data centers
A lot of startups and researchers are looking at putting data centers in space. Why the ocean?
AI Summary
Mocean Energy plans to launch commercial offshore data centers starting in 2030. The Scotland‑based startup’s modular system lets each unit operate independently, producing between 500 kW and 1 MW of power without needing a grid connection. Units are linked through low‑Earth‑orbit satellite communications, enabling remote operation. CEO Cameron McNatt says the approach is designed for scalable deployment of floating renewable power for data‑center workloads.
