2nd General Assembly was held in Varna 🌟
#THUNDER consortium partners gathered to review the progress from the 1st year as well as to visit Veolia's #DHN and the #AbilixSoft#datacentre, where #heat recovery ♨️ from the cooling processes will supply the #DHN.
Meet the #THUNDERsisters
We clustered with three projects, including @HycoolIT, which explores solutions for #efficient cooling of #IT#serverrooms. A rack-integrated adsorption chiller is being developed to cool IT servers using #wasteheat. Learn more - https://t.co/dO4rE9izGe
🏙️Waste heat from urban infrastructures like #DataCentres is untapped. They could meet up to 10% of Europe’s #heating demand for buildings! DCs alone contribute to 25% of these heat sources. Integrating DCs into #DHC networks can make them more #affordable and sustainable.
🎙 The #THUNDERTalks podcast is here with hot content! 🔥
In our 1st episode, host Evan Bernardi interviews András Takács on the potential of ♨ #WasteHeat recovery in #DataCentres and its role in decarbonising #heating & #cooling.

Mark your calendars! 👉 Join an event on #WasteHeat potential and #DataCenters#Cooling solutions, organised by @HEATWISE2024.
Moreover, the #THUNDER project will be highlighted in the showcase area!

1.200 Data Centres are located in the EU! #Germany takes the gold 🥇 ahead of #France and the #Netherlands 🥈 🥉
@_THUNDERproject is at the forefront of the development of sustainable solutions that can change how #heat from DCs can be coupled with #district#heating networks
#THUNDER uses Thermochemical Energy Storage (TES) to capture #wasteheat from data centres and release it into Varna’s #districtheating network."🏙️🔥
Why TES?
☑️ High energy density
☑️ Efficiency
☑️ Near-zero thermal loss

🌊 Explore our demo site is in #Varna!
At the Abilix Soft's data centre, we’re advancing #ThermoChemical energy storage and testing the effectiveness of this technology for #WasteHeat from #DataCentres
Captured heat will contribute to #decarbonisation of Varna's DH network♻️
🚀 We are pleased to announce the launch of the #THUNDER project website! 🌐
Our new site, serving as the main knowledge hub for the project, is now live at https://t.co/rdzsjAgPBr.
Explore the site to stay updated with the latest news and developments!
🔉 It's time for data centres to not just be consumers but also contributors to a more #sustainable world.
With #WasteHeat recovery technologies, the excess heat generated by the cooling processes could be reused to heat homes and buildings.
✅Follow our #THUNDER progress!
Do you feel the #THUNDER? ⛈
The new @HorizonEU project will shed light 🔦 on the untapped potential of #WasteHeat from data centres and develop an efficient and cost-effective Seasonal #ThermalStorage based on #Thermochemical Materials👨🔬
