How much power do you think datacentres gobble up? Vast warehouses full

Trivial.
And most of it is in ventiilation anyway, nothing to do with electronics.


Where is the heat that needs ventilating coming from harry?



It comes from the heatsinks on electronic components and from people in
these data centres.
Also from the lighting, the screens (CRT or flat).
From cooking and coffee making.

But mostly from solar gain.


you havent been in a dark office ever, have you harry?

Hence the idea of buggering off elsewhere where it is cold/solar gain is
less.


keep digging..i'll get the popcorn.
