In this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast, host Gary McCreadie chats with John Zimmerman, Founder & CEO of Harvest Integrated, to kick off a two-part conversation about the unique challenges of HVAC systems in the cannabis industry. John, who has a strong background in data center cooling, brings valuable expertise to the table, now applied to creating optimal environments for indoor grow operations. At Harvest Integrated, John and his team provide “climate as a service,” helping cannabis growers with reliable and efficient HVAC systems, tailored to their specific needs. The discussion in part one focuses on the complexities of maintaining the perfect environment for plant growth. John explains how HVAC requirements for grow rooms are similar to those in data centers but with added challenges, like the high humidity produced by the plants. He walks Gary through the different stages of plant growth, including vegetative, flowering, and drying, and how each requires specific adjustments to temperature and humidity control. He also highlights the importance of redundancy in these systems to prevent costly downtime and potential crop loss. John shares how Harvest Integrated's business model offers a comprehensive service to growers, from designing and installing systems to maintaining and repairing them over time. The company's unique approach ensures that growers have the support they need without the typical issues of system failures and lack of proper service. Tune in for part one of this insightful conversation, and stay tuned for the second part where John talks about the real-world applications and challenges in the cannabis HVAC space. Expect to Learn: - The unique HVAC challenges of cannabis grow rooms and how they differ from other industries. - Why humidity control is key in maintaining a healthy environment for plants. - How each stage of plant growth requires specific temperature and humidity adjustments. - Why redundancy in HVAC systems is critical to prevent costly downtime. - How Harvest Integrated's "climate as a service" model supports growers with ongoing system management.

Interview with Clinton Booth, Managing Director of Green Critical Minerals Ltd.Recording date: 29th July 2025Green Critical Minerals (GCM) has executed a strategic transformation from traditional mineral exploration to advanced technology manufacturing, positioning itself at the forefront of the rapidly expanding thermal management market. Under Managing Director Clinton Booth's leadership, the company has acquired Very High Density (VHD) graphite technology that addresses a critical challenge in modern computing: efficiently cooling increasingly powerful microchips in data centers and high-performance computing applications.The technology represents a significant breakthrough in thermal management. VHD graphite can handle 300W of power demand compared to just 200W for traditional copper and aluminum heat sinks of identical design when operating at 70 degrees—a 50% performance improvement. This enhanced capability directly translates to reduced cooling costs, lower electricity consumption, and decreased water usage for data center operators, who typically spend 30-40% of their operating costs on cooling systems.GCM's market opportunity is substantial and growing rapidly. The heat sink market for data centers alone was valued at $17 billion in 2023, while Nvidia's chip sales to the data center sector exploded from approximately $4 billion in 2023 to over $40 billion in 2024, demonstrating the explosive growth driving demand for advanced thermal solutions.The company has developed a dual-channel go-to-market strategy targeting immediate revenue through online retailers and industrial suppliers, followed by high-volume contracts with data center and semiconductor customers. GCM's modular manufacturing approach requires only $500,000 per production module and can scale capacity 6-8 times within 3-6 months, targeting 40% gross margins.Following a $7 million capital raise in June 2025 anchored by Terra Capital, GCM is well-positioned to capitalize on the intersection of AI growth and energy efficiency demands. The company targets first revenue in the first half of 2026, with strategic partnerships including GreenSquareDC providing real-world validation opportunities in the sustainability-focused data center market.View Green Critical Minerals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/green-critical-mineralsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The rise of AI and its integration into our daily lives is sapping the power grid, and means that for this to keep up..we need to make bigger data centers. The Millard County Commission back in June approved in favor of appropriating over one-thousand acres of agricultural land to be redeveloped to create the world's largest data center. We speak to Commissioner Bill Wright about this new data center and what it means for Utah.
Smarter Security Starts with Key & Equipment Management In data centers, physical access control is just as critical as cybersecurity. Intelligent key and equipment management solutions help safeguard infrastructure, reduce risk, and improve efficiency — all while supporting compliance. Key Benefits: Enhanced Security – Restrict access to authorized personnel only Audit Trails – Track every access event for full accountability Operational Efficiency – Eliminate manual tracking and delays Risk Reduction – Prevent loss, misuse, or unauthorized access System Integration – Connect with access, video, and visitor tools Regulatory Support – Comply with ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA & more A smart solution for a high-stakes environment — because in the data center world, every detail matters.
U.S.-based data centers are expanding at a fast pace, thanks largely to the boom in generative artificial intelligence software and cloud computing. But they're also reportedly causing environmental issues and other problems for their neighbors. The BBC's Michelle Fleury reports from Georgia on how the boom in data centers is raising environmental and sustainability concerns from the people who live near them.

New DCF Podcast Episode Breaks Down the Real Work Behind Energy and Emissions Metrics In the latest episode of the Data Center Frontier Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Matt Vincent sits down with Jay Dietrich, Research Director of Sustainability at Uptime Institute, to examine what real sustainability looks like inside the data center — and why popular narratives around net zero, offsets, and carbon neutrality often obscure more than they reveal. Over the course of a 36-minute conversation, Dietrich walks listeners through Uptime's expanding role in guiding data center operators toward measurable sustainability outcomes — not just certifications, but operational performance improvements at the facility level.
