The Netherlands has unveiled floating data centers designed to cool themselves naturally using canal water instead of traditional air-conditioning systems. This ingenious design slashes energy consumption and emissions while keeping critical digital infrastructure running efficiently.Developed by Nautilus Data Technologies and Dutch innovators in Amsterdam, these self-sustaining platforms draw cool water directly from surrounding canals, circulate it through a closed-loop system, and release it back without harming the environment. Some even integrate solar panels for additional power, creating a near-zero-emission operation.As data demand soars and cities run out of land, these floating centers could revolutionize cloud storage. They offer flexibility, mobility, and sustainability — a perfect blend of technology and environmental harmony. The Netherlands is proving that even data can go green. #GreenTech #SustainableInnovation #DataCenters #Netherlands #CanalCooling https://www.instagram.com/p/DQrB0moDh77/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
