Keysource has been shortlisted for an EI Award in the Energy Excellence category. Judged by a prestigious panel of Energy Institute members, the Energy Excellence Award is intended to give recognition to an outstanding achievement. The judges will be looking for evidence of fresh thinking and strategic and innovative problem solving.

The shortlisted entry is for Keysource’s approach to delivering high efficiency cooling solutions in multiple data centres across the UK. By utilising an innovative “room flood” approach to delivering the air within the data centre twinned with the latest controls and optimal heat rejection Keysource have been able to deliver some of the most efficient data centres operating in the UK. This includes the development of a chillerless indirect free cooling solution. Finalists will be announced at the EI Awards ceremony, which will take place on 12 November 2015 at the Sheraton Park Lane, London.

Rob Elder, Director, Keysource said, “Data Centre Cooling is often an area which is looked at from purely a plant perspective but we recognize it is about how you design and operate the overall system which counts. Taking into account not just efficiency but operational performance capable of supporting mixed and high density we have delivered a range of different solutions with a common approach. It is great for the people who have been at the forefront of this within our business to be recognised by the Energy Institute.”
