Data Center Heat Recovery Helps Intel Create Green Facility

Intel has opened its first "Green" certified building: a new development center in Israel. The facility has six floors above ground, with an additional five floors below ground. It will include a high-density, air-cooled data center occupying approximately 10,000 square feet, with total power consumption up to 3.7 MegaWatts (MW) when operating at full capacity. Energy-efficient design helps buildings accumulate points towards certification under the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System.
