Data centre to heat UK swimming pool

Deep Green predicts the centre will save £80k of heating costs a year at the pool in Greater Manchester, UK.

The data centre builder says the centre at Move Urmston leisure centre will reduce carbon emissions by 50t a year.

The company is building 300MW of distributed data centres and is announcing the first wave of capacity across the North West and North East of the UK.

Move Urmston is the first public leisure centre in the North West and the second in the UK to benefit from heat recaptured from a Deep Green data centre.

Deep Green claims the centres have AI-ready low latency capacity and are designed for high density workloads of up to 100kW per rack.

It asserts that the best-in-industry cooling reduces power costs and decarbonised computing including Scope 3, with a unique carbon removals programme.
