Description du projet
Data centers are the backbone of the digital age, with unprecedented demand for digital infrastructure driven by the surge in the use of AI, machine learning, and supercomputing. However, their energy consumption is skyrocketing. By 2030, an estimated six percent of global energy consumption will be used specifically for cooling data centers. A shift from traditional cooling methods to more cost- and energy efficient liquid-based solutions is inevitable. Apheros is seizing this critical moment to introduce its innovative metal foam technology, offering a superior solution to this pressing industry challenge.
Apheros offers innovative, high-surface-area metal foams optimized for liquid and two-phase cooling. Our patented manufacturing process creates unique foam structures with completely open porosity and unparalleled surface area, surpassing traditional solutions by a factor of thousand, which translates into exceptional heat transfer and flow properties. Ideal for high performance cooling applications, Apheros’ metal foams are easily integrated within its customers’ existing cooling systems. They address customers’ urgent needs of reduced energy consumption and cooling costs.
Etat/résultats intermédiaires
This project enabled Apheros to validate its technology with customers, to test long term reliability and performance. It also supported the scaling of Apheros’ production allowing the company to meet their customers’ needs. Apheros is now running parallel efforts to extend its pipeline of customers to 15 in the cooling and 5 in the green hydrogen market, and to scale-up its production capacity to match the customer demand at market entry.
