General information

Short Summary
A Romanian consultancy and technology company is developing a sustainable AI-driven modular data center with hybrid cloud and colocation architecture, powered by renewable energy.
The project introduces a two-phase concept that integrates front-end structures in Germany’s Rhein-Main region and back-end high-performance computing infrastructure in North-East Romania, achieving latency targets below 1 ms (intra-EU) and 15–40 ms (cross-regional).
Full Description
Founded in 2022, the company provides consultancy in management, sustainability, and technology integration across Romania and Western Europe. Building on its expertise in digital and energy-efficient business solutions, it is now developing a hybrid AI Data Center that merges renewable energy, high-performance computing, and smart modular infrastructure.

The first phase focuses on the creation of a Tier III/IV sustainable data center in North-East Romania, designed as a regional innovation hub for AI applications, renewable energy systems, and data infrastructure.

The second phase extends the project by establishing a modular IT service model connecting front-end components in Rhein-Main, Germany (for clients requiring ultra-low latency <1 ms) with back-end high-performance systems in Romania (15–40 ms).

This bi-regional structure leverages both geographical efficiency and regulatory compliance, combining European data protection standards with energy-optimized computation capacity.

Key technical elements include:

• Dual-cooling infrastructure – liquid and air cooling with heat recovery and energy conversion
• Hybrid generators – hydrogen or other reliable combustible energy carriers and battery-based systems for uninterrupted power supply
• High-performance GPU platforms for AI training and simulation
• AI-driven smart city applications – covering public safety, data analytics, and administrative efficiency
• Colocation services – including backup, recovery, cybersecurity, hosting, and domain support

The project complies with EN50600, ISO50001, and EU Green Deal objectives, aiming to establish a future-ready infrastructure that merges digitalization with sustainability.

The company seeks partners for joint development, research collaboration, and investment to accelerate pilot deployment and cross-border scalability.
Advantages and Innovations
The concept combines technological, environmental, and operational innovation in a unified system that supports the transition toward sustainable high-performance computing.

Key advantages:

• Modular, scalable design enabling gradual capacity growth
• Hybrid cloud + colocation model for flexibility and cost efficiency
• AI-driven optimization for predictive maintenance and smart energy allocation
• Integration of renewable energy and waste-heat recovery
• Multi-layer AI-based cybersecurity
• Compliance with EU energy-efficiency and green infrastructure standards

Innovative aspects:

• Dual-region architecture (Germany–Romania) enabling latency optimization and cost balance
• Integration of AI-assisted energy management, GPU clusters, and hydrogen hybrid power systems
• Advanced liquid-air cooling and thermal recovery design
• Application potential in smart cities, industrial AI, and edge computing environments
• Alignment with EU digital and green transition priorities
