I like this.
This is where technology should be headed a bit more in my opinion.
There is so much natural energy to be harvested out there... pretty much everywhere. If you have wind, there's energy.. if you have tides, there's energy.. if you have sun, there's energy...
How about using that energy to power a data center??
With the emergence of the internet and since nowadays "everything" (maybe not... but probably close) is generally "computed" in one way or another it seems to me that using these natural resources to power these huge electricity sucking centers only makes sense.
A company out in Texas called Baryonyx Corporation is behind this.
They're planning to run about 100 wind turbines to power the data center and they're also planning to develop hydrogen fuel cells and solar power...
In my opinion, this is innovation.
