About THOR:
- Based in Reyjkavik (Iceland).
- Hosting and Cloud Storage provider
- 100% Carbon Neutral Data Center (all power generation is geothermal and hydro).
- Maximum resiliency: Tier 3
- 18 x IT Container 40´ with 280 racks in total and 4MW IT power. Natural Free Cooling.
- Ultra low TCO: due to low PUE and very cheap kw/h (€ 0,03), about 70% less than in continental Europe.
- Redundant Fiber Optic link to continental Europe with 50ms latency.
Electrical consumption in Data Centers
IT systems
38%-63%
Air Conditioning
23%-54%
UPSes 6%-13%
Lighting 1%-2%
Energy costs grow between 10% to 25% annually
Two areas to focus on savings

The challenge of Free Cooling in Iceland
-Ideal location for Free Cooling: temp year round does not exceeds 24ºC.
-However, very high content of sulphur in the ambience.
- A study by IBM showed that direct air free cooling (even with EPA filter) damaged processors after 6 months.
- Direct air intake in Iceland is not possible.
- An alternative technology must be used.

Natural Free Cooling… not only in Iceland
-MNFC can provide Free Cooling up to 24ºC.
- 89% of hours in Madrid are below 24ºC (we can achieve PUE 1,11).
- With std. Chiller Free Cooling (CW 7ºC/12ºC) we can only use 25% of the year-hours!
- Savings in a 500KW IT load Data Center can be of up to € 250k / year!
- ROI is around 18 months!
- The improvement is extraordinary even in non-nordic locations!
