Apheros says it can boost data center cooling by 90% with metal foam


Alpheros says its patented technology can cut down the energy requirements for data center cooling by at least 10%-20%.

As hyperscalers continue to invest in data center expansion to meet LLMs’ soaring computational and power demands, a Swiss startup is leading the charge to help them make the most of their existing infrastructure first. Now, as enterprises and hyperscalers mull investments in newer, more power-efficient data centers, Apheros is looking to upgrade their existing infrastructure by targeting how they handle the cooling of the specialized hardware powering the AI workloads. Instead, she said, Apheros uses a different proprietary and patented powder-based manufacturing method at room temperature, which circumvents all known issues while giving users the flexibility to choose the metal best suited for their needs — from copper and nickel to iron and stainless steel.
