Cooling
Our VA2 Ashburn data center campus will use a highly efficient closed-loop chilled water system generated through air-cooled chillers. The cooling system will include an integrated economizer capability that allows reduced compressor energy based on outside ambient temperature, so when weather is favorable, cooling becomes more sustainable and less resource intensive.
