A new biogas production facility will be co-located with the 100MW Echelon data centre in Arklow.
Two Irish companies have joined forces to explore how their facilities could be powered more sustainably.
Biocore Environmental has agreed to co-locate a biogas production facility with a 100MW Echelon data centre in Arklow, Co Wicklow.
Irish-owned data centre operator Echelon currently has six facilities under development in Ireland and the UK with a potential combined capacity of around 500MW, including one in Arklow.
Biocore was founded in 2010 and generates renewable power from biosolids. It specialises in producing methane gas through the anaerobic digestion process, which can be used to power combined heat and power generators producing electricity, or which can be processed further and supplied directly to the national gas network. ....

The move opens up the possibility of Biocore providing renewable backup power, created from the production of methane gas through anaerobic digestion, to supply the data centre.
The development is part of Echelon’s commitment to using clean and sustainable power in its six sites in Ireland and the UK.
The inconvenient truth is that data centres are huge consumers of power – but equally inconvenient is the fact that without them, we would not be enjoying – relying on – the benefits of 5G, e-commerce, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence (machine learning) and virtual reality, said Niall Molloy, CEO of Echelon Data Centres. ....
