Heata

Data Centres already emit more carbon than the entire aviation industry, and with AI fuelling a new boom in data centre construction, they will consume almost 10% of global electricity by 2030. heata believes this to be incompatible with a Net Zero future. Backed by British Gas, heata has reimagined the data centre as a network of distributed servers inside people’s homes, where they capture the waste heat from data processing and use it to provide people who need it with free hot water. heata reduces energy use by 80% and helps people in fuel poverty at the same time. With a network of heata units installed in homes throughout the UK, companies are already joining the heata network to reduce the carbon footprint of their IT whilst giving back to their communities.
