Cooling
- The Opportunity
Cooling the digital world without consuming the planet's water
Data centers, Al workloads, and industrial systems are straining global cooling capacity. Traditional methods rely heavily on potable water or aquifer withdrawals, risk contamination, and are slow to deploy.
At the same time, cooling is consuming an ever-larger share of electricity, reducing efficiency and increasing costs for operators.
- Our Breakthrough
Applied FGC Cooling
Solution Energy deploys in shallow wells that transfer waste heat from servers or industrial systems into the earth. Closed-loop circulation ensures no fluid leaves the system and only heat moves. The result is a scalable, zero-water, zero-emission cooling platform that supports the rapid growth of digital infrastructure while protecting groundwater and reducing parasitic cooling loads.
Technology
At the core of this breakthrough is our Forced Geothermal Cooling Circuit (FGCC). This novel design takes advantage of advances in additive manufacturing technology and replaces evaporative cooling with subsurface heat rejection, eliminating water consumption while maintaining high thermodynamic efficiency.
Proprietary Downhole Heat Exchanger
Made possible by advances in additive manufacturing technologies and using innovations pioneered in aerospace, it dramatically increases thermal transfer efficiency.
The FGCC system produces economic, efficient cooling infrastructure that can reliably dissipate waste heat from data centers, power generation equipment and other industrial applications.

- Next Gen Cooling
Solving Cooling's Prior Limitations
High Energy Penalties
Chillers, pumps, and fans draw large parasitic loads, reducing net power available for computing and operations.
Water Use and Availability
A single hyperscale data center can consume millions of gallons per year. Increasing scarcity and new restrictions make water-based cooling unsustainable in many regions.
- Sustainable Future
Lower Energy. Zero Water. Smarter Growth.
By lowering cooling energy demand and eliminating water use, we help operators cut costs, deploy faster, and build responsibly.
Every FGCC-cooled facility frees capacity for computing power – enabling the sustainable growth of digital and industrial infrastructure.
