The new data center is scheduled to "officially" open on June 25, with Computer Sciences (csc.com) as an anchor tenant. The facility will deploy various energy efficient technologies, such as rotary UPSes, variable-speed fans and roof-mounted cooling reserves that use night temperatures to lower daytime heat.
Modularity and reliance on utility computing will also play a significant factor in the facility.
In January 2007, Terremark announced it first secured the 30-acre site in Culpeper County, Virginia to build a new data center campus, NAP of the Capitol Region.
Then in October, Terremark started construction on the $250 million data center project, which it said would comprise of five facilities spanning 450,000 square feet.
The past month has seen the opening of a handful of high-profile green data centers, starting with last weeks IBM Boulder, Colorado facility opening. The data center claims to be the largest green data center in North America, measuring in at 115,000 square feet, with more than 70,000 square feet of raised floor space.
In Amsterdam, EvoSwitch recently expanded its center, adding another 2,000 square meters. In this second of three phases, the facility features advanced cooling technology that reduces cooling costs by 20 percent. | Reads: 874 | Category: General | Source: TheWHIR : Web Host Industry Reviews
