Katrick Technologies’ passive cooling installation with iomart wins Digital City Award.

Katrick Technologies and iomart have won ‘Best Use of Emerging Technology’ at the Digital City Awards in Manchester. A phenomenal first for the groundbreaking innovative installation.

In October 2021, Katrick Technologies in partnership with iomart installed their world-first Passive Cooling technology at their Glasgow data centre site. Results from the installation demonstrated that the system can save up to 70% of the total power consumption across cooling power, and a further savings of up to 25% for the entire site. Additionally, up to 100 tonnes of carbon emissions can be prevented by the application of the technology. The win for both companies cements a dramatic shift in how data centres consume power to attain their Net Zero goals.
