Data Centre cooling

Cutting data centre cooling costs by 75%: the O-Hx advantage

Have you ever wondered what one of the UK’s largest data centres spends on electricity each day? The answer might surprise you — approximately £148,000 per day, with around 50% of that cost attributed to cooling alone. With Organic Heat Exchangers (O-Hx), we’ve been working on a smarter, more efficient solution. Through a special purpose electricity tariff, we’ve developed — featuring rates of 24p/kWh peak and 6p/kWh off-peak, with 12 hours of off-peak availability — data centres now have the opportunity to cut their cooling costs by up to 75%. Interested? Visit O-Hx 350 PPM electricity tariff. Unlocking more than just savings Our Energivault® [...]

Cooling power

Absolute cooling power

For high-demand cooling applications, such as data centres, industrial facilities, andhospitals, absolute cooling resilience is critical. A 1MW water chiller running for one hour requires a significant power supply, typicallybacked by large lithium-ion battery banks, adding substantial costs and complexity. For O-Hx, we compared the cost and performance of 1MW of absolute cooling for one hourusing: Traditional 1MW water chiller + battery storage EnergiVault thermal energy storage (TES) Our analysis shows that EnergiVault offers a far more cost-effective and efficient solution,saving up to £940,000 compared to a traditional battery-backed chiller system.

Organic Heat Exchangers: meet the team

O-Hx has invented a new kind of binary ice using an organic heat exchanger. This has then been incorporated into its proprietary 1 MWh cold thermal energy storage (CTES) battery and charger, the EnergiVault®. This first-of-its-kind, AI-driven technology has been developed to enhance operational resilience, reduce energy costs and lower carbon emissions for facilities that use water chillers to deliver their cooling requirements. So how exactly is AI supporting the development of EnergiVault? Meet the team behind the innovation and find out more about investing and the EIS opportunities available before the end of the tax year 2025. Register here.
