- Two things we admire about Blumen’s data center and power developer pals: 1. They go big. 2. They consider the long-term power generation needs and environmental footprint of the locales in which they are building. Which was precisely the topic of conversation Blumen founder Hannes Boehning participated in at the Energize Capital #EnergizeNEXT conference. Sustainable data center development. The topic du jour. In case you weren’t there, the panel discussed the tradeoffs of distributed compute and AI model inference at the edge and highly centralized training on power-hungry super clusters. But we’re about building big things at Blumen. We believe building #datacenters with pace and intelligence can ensure we match demand for compute effectively and sustainably. This is hard because: ⚙️ New, larger facility designs --> new hardware --> supply chain fragility 🛠️ A deficit of labor with specialization for site construction and commissioning that incorporate large scale industrial, telecom, and energy assets 🌳 Regulatory requirement to minimize environmental and land use impact, and uniquely for data centers - particulate emissions and water usage. This equates to permitting. We see leaders bucking the false tradeoff of speed v sustainability. Interesting tactics include: 🏭 Colocation on sites with retired energy assets (read: Constellation + MSFT) 🔋 Focus on powering with mostly clean power, not an all or nothing approach 🏛️ Surface local #permitting requirements (especially air quality, zoning, and water use) early with a partner like Blumen. If you’re all about building big things, minimizing harm, and finding ways to do it faster – give us a shout.
- The Blumen team is back at RE+ this year!! Swing by our booth (MM1105) in Anaheim and run a full demo with Hannes Boehning, Michael Mattimoe, and our newest permitting and product wizard Andrew Salmon. It's been such a pleasure building for and alongside many of you this past year and we can't wait to see you on Tuesday!
- We're just a day away from #CLEANPOWER24! The Blumen contingent (Hannes Boehning, Tina Brazil, and Michael Mattimoe) will be holding down the fort at booth 2361 and geared up to share our breakthrough progress in autonomous permit discovery and site planning with you. Drop by any time during the conference or grab a slot on our calendar (https://lnkd.in/g88vy5jA), and we'll be more than happy to run a test project for you live. See you in Minneapolis!
