In an effort to reduce the environmental impact of data centers, Arbor, a leading provider of data center infrastructure, has partnered with Frontier, a pioneer in sustainable energy solutions. The collaboration aims to develop a “vegetarian rocket engine” – a revolutionary new technology that harnesses the power of air and water to generate electricity.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), 75% of data centers worldwide rely on fossil fuels for their energy needs, contributing significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. This staggering statistic highlights the urgent need for sustainable solutions in the tech industry.
The new engine is expected to reduce carbon emissions by up to 90%, making it a crucial step towards achieving a more environmentally friendly computing landscape. With the global data center market projected to reach $14.4 billion by 2025, this innovative technology has the potential to make a significant impact on the industry’s environmental footprint.
By leveraging Frontier’s expertise in sustainable energy and Arbor’s knowledge of data center infrastructure, the “vegetarian rocket engine” is poised to transform the way we power our digital world.

May 12 Fun fact.
Oil and gas may not be ‘fossil fuels’, but renewable energy source created by a geothermal reaction between the solid mantle and liquid core.
This is according to the abiogenic petroleum origin hypothesis, that posits that petroleum and natural gas are formed from
