Top Energy-Efficient HPC Achievement

The LUMI supercomputer, built by HPE, is one of the greenest supercomputers in the world, using 100% carbon-neutral hydroelectric power and capturing waste heat to power the surrounding city of Kajaani, Finland. That substantially reduces the entire city’s annual carbon footprint by 12,400 tons, an amount that equals the output from nearly 4,000 passenger cars. In addition to being one of the greenest, much of the research being conducted on LUMI is focused on driving new scientific advancements that will allow society to become more sustainable.
