GRC and DCV to Launch Next-Gen Immersion-Cooled Data Centers in the Middle East

Collaboration between leading containerized data center, IT technology, and immersion cooling system developers will accelerate deployment of high-efficiency, single phase liquid immersion cooled, containerized data center solutions in the region.

Dubai, UAE – October 17, 2023 – GRC (Green Revolution Cooling), DCV Industries, and Dell Technologies announced today a collaboration to deliver cutting-edge, immersion-cooled, modular data centers to the Middle East Region.

By combining GRC’s leading patented single-phase immersion cooling, DCV’s robust containerized data center enclosures and Dell’s high-density server technologies, the relationship aims to offer organizations in the region a comprehensive solution to significantly reduce data center build, maintenance, and power costs when compared to traditional air-cooled facilities.

Conventional data center cooling consumes an enormous amount of electricity, and can account for up to 40% of data center energy usage overall.[1] This power consumption also drives the poor power usage effectiveness ratings of conventional data centers: an average air cooled data center has a PUE of 1.8.[2] By eliminating the need for power-hungry chillers and air conditioning to cool IT equipment, immersion cooling enables operators can achieve a power usage effectiveness (PUE) of <1.03,[3] dramatically reducing data center energy consumption when compared to air cooling. As a result, by replacing air chilling infrastructure with high-efficiency immersion cooling, data center operators can reduce their total power consumption along with an associated reduction in carbon emissions. In addition, as it addresses the cooling requirements of the entire server rather than just the CPUs or GPUs and reduces overall power consumption by eliminating server fans, immersion cooling is even more energy efficient than cold plate or direct-to-chip methods.

The integrated solution is purpose-built for the harsh and demanding Middle East environment and is ideal for sustainability-focused organizations.  “Because the IT equipment is submerged in a protective dielectric fluid, immersion cooling provides unique protection against environmental contaminants, static, dust, and condensation, making it especially well-suited for use in containerized data center solutions,” said Paul Edmondson, EMEA Vice President of GRC. “Plus, with rising server energy consumption, power costs, sustainability policies, and regulatory scrutiny, immersion cooling is positioned to be the primary technology enabling sustainability for all data centers today and into the future.”

“Nowadays, with the tremendous influx of data, it is critical to be business-ready faster, turning insights into actions and driving speedy outcomes, yet remaining sustainable and cost efficient. In this environment, to save resources and costs, businesses must act by implementing efficiencies to reduce overall energy use. Our collaboration with GRC and DCV helps customers to significantly increase the capacity of their datacenters using the latest sustainable cooling technology.” said Walid Yehia, managing director, UAE at Dell Technologies

Demand for eco-friendly data centers in the Gulf region is expected to boom with rapid digital transformation. The collaboration aims to accelerate deployment of immersion-cooled facilities that favour green, resilient solutions that reduce environmental impact. “Our innovative containerized infrastructure design provides a resilient plug-and-play data center option for harsh Gulf environments while meeting sustainability goals,” noted Mohamad Abou Zaki, CEO, DCV Industries.
