Start Campus, the visionary developer behind SINES DC, is gearing up for an exciting showcase at PTC’25 in Honolulu, Hawaii, from January 19-22, 2025. With a leadership team including Chief Executive Officer Rob Dunn, Head of Sales Jose Luis, Chief Marketing Officer Omer Wilson, Board Member Jayne Stowell and Head of Connectivity Fernando Azevedo, Start Campus is eager to share its groundbreaking initiatives in sustainable digital infrastructure.
Revolutionizing Digital Infrastructure
At the heart of Start Campus’s mission is the SINES DC project, which represents a remarkable €8.5 billion investment in Europe’s largest and most sustainable digital ecosystem. This ambitious data center campus boasts an impressive capacity of 1.2GW of IT load, all powered by 100% renewable energy. With a Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) of just 1.1 and a Water Usage Effectiveness (WUE) of 0, SINES DC is setting new standards for efficiency and sustainability in the industry.
Meeting the Demands of AI and Beyond
As the digital landscape evolves, so do the requirements for data centers. Start Campus is at the forefront of this transformation, particularly in catering to the needs of artificial intelligence (AI) applications. The company has partnered with JetCool to implement advanced liquid cooling technologies that efficiently manage the thermal demands of high-density computing systems. This innovative approach not only enhances performance but also significantly reduces energy and water consumption.
In addition to AI-ready solutions, SINES DC offers a range of flexible options including powered shell, turn-key, and build-to-suit solutions. This versatility allows clients to tailor their data center environments to meet specific operational needs while ensuring scalability for future growth.
Looking to the Future
The team at Start Campus is excited about the future of digital infrastructure. At PTC’25, they will engage attendees on several key topics: the impact of AI on data center design and operations, innovations in liquid cooling and energy efficiency, and strategies for achieving Net Zero data centers by 2030. They will also highlight the strategic advantages of Portugal as a hub for sustainable digital infrastructure.
