Aquifer & Cooling Water Simulator
Compare legacy evaporative cooling with modern zero-water closed-loop technology. Toggle configurations and temperatures to see how the local Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer remains protected.
Evaporative systems consume millions of gallons of groundwater by boiling/evaporating water in massive cooling towers to drop server temps.
Represents facility computational workload and heat generation.
Texas summer heat directly impacts cooling efficiency and evaporation rates.
Equivalent to municipal usage of approx. 1,142 local homes.
Dynamic Cooling Cycle Schematic
Case Study: Project Horizon, Fort Stockton, TX
In far west Texas, Poolside Infrastructure Company’s Project Horizon is building a 1.2 GW campus that uses an innovative closed-loop cooling system to pull 100% non-potable groundwater for chip-level heat rejection. Reusing coolant continuously, the facility's daily water consumption is equivalent to irrigating only two acres of alfalfa. Read details.
* Projections illustrate physical thermodynamics: Legacy evaporative cooling uses massive cooling towers that actively boil and vent groundwater. Modern zero-water closed-loop systems circulate food-grade eco-coolant inside air-cooled radiators, requiring zero operational groundwater draw.
