SDIA works on different proprietary and subsidised projects in order to speeden the implementation of heat reuse in the digital infrastructure. Most notable examples are:
- EcoQube
- ECO-Qube is a holistic management system which aims to enhance energy efficiency and cooling performance by orchestrating both hardware and software components in edge computing applications.
ECOQube
The ECO-Qube project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 956059 The contents of this publication are the sole responsibility of ECO-Qube and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the European Union.

- The cooling requirements of Datacenters
- In conjuction with EKWB, SDIA drafted a report highlighting the concerns regarding the environment, energy efficiency, and compute density which are playing a big role in the future of HPC facilities and data center designs. Liquid-cooling is an order of magnitude more efficient at cooling IT equipment, and as such, it is becoming an integral part of future strategies and a valuable alternative to air-cooling for existing data centers.
