by Rebecca Walker — December 4, 2009—AdaptivCool and Bluestone Energy Services have announced an exclusive partnership to provide data center energy-efficiency solutions in National Grid and NSTAR territories.
The collaboration will strengthen AdaptivCool and Bluestone’s ability to help clients implement data center efficiency best practices, the companies say. The partnership, building on a similar agreement made in March of 2009, will leverage AdaptivCool’s expertise in adaptive-cooling technologies such as Room Scale Intelligent Cooling (RSIC) and Bluestone’s expertise in designing solutions that earn financial incentives from local utilities.
AdaptivCool is the data center division of Milford, New Hampshire-based Degree Controls, Inc. AdaptivCool’s flagship technology is AdaptivCool Room Scale Intelligent Cooling (RSIC). RISC’ temperature sensors send information to a sophisticated Cooling Resource Manager that calculates minute-by-minute cooling demand and controls data center airflow dynamically via floor- and ceiling-mounted air movers, reducing electrical consumption for data center cooling by up to thirty percent. More information can be found online.
Bluestone Energy Services provides professional engineering, project development and demand-side management (DSM) services for utility, industrial and commercial clients. For more information, see the Web site.
