Engineering's Jonathan Steirer offered suggestions for integrating hyperscale data centers with existing infrastructure

ideastream: Jonathan Steirer, interim director of the Great Lakes Energy Institute at Case School of Engineering, suggested Cleveland could creatively integrate hyperscale data centers with existing infrastructure—for example, using waste heat from a downtown data center for district heating. He emphasized that treating these facilities as larger community assets, rather than standalone developments, would be key to making them work in an urban setting.
