Mainova WebHouse is developing an environmentally friendly data centre in Frankfurt that will help customers and the city achieve their climate protection goals. Sustainability and energy efficiency were paramount when choosing suppliers and Kelvion cooling technology was way ahead in meeting these requirements.

Green electricity

The new data centre is the first for Mainova WebHouse, a subsidiary of German regional energy company Mainova, which supplies more than a million people with electricity, gas, heat and water.

As part of the company’s commitment to decarbonisation, the data centre campus will be supplied with 100% green electricity. Built with LEED-Gold certification, the new facility will reuse waste heat to power other buildings in the area.

Bespoke coolers

To cool the data centre, the customer needed a free cooling solution that would handle heat rejection on the roof. They wanted a water-based system as this is more environmentally friendly than glycol, plus a freezing protection system and a heat exchange surface of around 5,000 square meters.

Kelvion’s R&D team in Fareham, UK, worked with the production team in Swiebodzice in Poland to create a customised prototype.

Following successful tests, we provided 20 units, each measuring 10 meters long and with 16 fans – all delivered within precise timescales.

The result

The customer was impressed by the sustainability and low energy consumption of Kelvion cooling technology and satisfied with our ability to customise our coolers to suit their requirements.

“For our project, we chose Kelvion dry coolers – providing the best technical solution, ability to customise and all within budget. They were the most sustainable having the lowest energy consumption within the competition,” said Juan Bono, Construction Director at Mainova WebHouse. “Throughout the whole project cycle, we’ve been satisfied with the technical support we have received, always meeting our demands, the on-time delivery and actual supervision on site answering any questions that we ever had throughout all of that process. It has been a pleasure to work collaboratively with Kelvion through the whole process.”
