Exclusive: This young startup wants to power floating data centers with the ocean’s heat, and investors are already on board
Drogue is harvesting heat from the ocean to power data centers on floating vessels. The first prototype should be bobbing around the ocean, crunching bits, in less than two years.
Drogue develops a system that takes advantage of the oceanic thermal differential to generate electricity and feed data centers on ships. The startup has designed a prototype of several megawatts and plans to install it on a ship and send it to the sea in early 2028; it is in the process of buying its first ship.The entry A startup seeks to feed floating data centers with ocean energy aparece primero en Merca2.
Drogue raised $20 million to develop floating data centers that take advantage of the temperature difference between surface and deep water. The startup plans to test a multi-megawatt prototype on an ocean boat in early 2028.
