Improvements to data center energy efficiency have been advancing from numerous directions, including power distribution innovations, the creation of hardware better suited to customer applications to drive better IT utilization, co-designing data centers with IT solutions, and cooling system innovations.
In the high-performance computing (HPC) space, more aggressive cooling technologies, such as liquid cooling, have seen rapid adoption. There has also been increasing evidence that liquid cooling is making its way into non-HPC data centers.
In this webcast, Dr. Tahir Cader helps to demystify liquid cooling and discusses:
- Data center energy efficiency trends
- Lliquid-cooling technologies
- The role that liquid-cooled IT plays in driving improved energy efficiency toward a PUE of 1.1
- The challenges of implementing liquid cooling in IT and data centers
In addition, The Green Grid’s Liquid Cooling Work Group and its upcoming projects are introduced.
Watch now to learn why the impact of liquid cooling on data center energy efficiency is truly compelling.
Please contact The Green Grid Administration if you have any questions.

Dr. Tahir Cader is a distinguished echnologist within HP’s HP Servers (HPS) organization with demonstrated success in defining power and cooling strategies and architectures from the product through to the data center for HP’s Hyperscale, HPC, and Enterprise market segments. In particular, his emphasis is on issues relating to thermal management (air and liquid), end-to-end management, energy efficiency, and lowest total cost of ownership of data centers.
Tahir is also active with external standards bodies and public policy organizations. He is a member of The Green Grid’s Board of Directors, a member of The Green Grid’s Technical Committee, The Green Grid’s liaison to ASHRAE TC9.9, and a member of ASHRAE Technical Committee 9.9.
With more than 20 years of experience in the thermal management and data center industries, Tahir is both a sole inventor as well as a co-inventor for more than 20 issued and more than 10 filed patents. He is a co-author for more than 45 peer-reviewed journal, conference, and trade journal technical articles. He was the lead editor/author for The Green Grid/ASHRAE joint book, entitled Real-Time Energy Consumption Measurements in Data Centers, and was also a significant contributor to several published ASHRAE Datacom Series books.
