Coverage: Global
What's New?
It is not often traditional products face the prospect of a new outlet well-aligned with a mega-trend like Digitalization , creating a promising new playing field.
Correctly estimating the opportunity based on where-to-play and right-to-win requires several steps, starting with a pragmatic view of the fundamentals of the opportunity to make go/no-go decisions.
This is the purpose of our Flash Report on Immersion cooling fluids in Digital infrastructure.
What's it About?
Global electronic cooling technology is driven by new performance requirements.
As society’s data processing needs grow with the rise of the data economy, there is a need for higher-performance, smarter, more energy/cost-efficient, and sustainable data centers. Immersion cooling can help solve these challenges.
This report is focused on digital applications. It expands and complements our existing body of work on EV cooling evolution and will be a part of our Emerging Opportunity tracking program.
Why Look into this Space?
Immersion cooling technology offers superior performance compared with other technologies, pointing to value potential.
Fluid manufacturers developing products for emerging EV thermal management applications could uncover synergies in the emerging data server (cloud computing, cryptocurrency) applications.
Taking advantage of this growing space will require a sector-specific and compelling value proposition balancing the key needs: Performance, Cost, Sustainability.
