Liquid cooling specialist Submer has expanded its remit and moved into building data centers. Its first facility will be in Barcelona, Spain.
The company this week announced the launch of two new business units: a design & construction unit and an operations & AI-as-a-service (AIaaS).
The design & construction unit will build liquid-cooled data centers to support high-density and AI workloads, whilst the operations & AIaaS unit will provide vertically integrated infrastructure for enterprises.
As part of its plans, the company is planning its first facility in Barcelona.
The facility will offer 56MW of IT capacity and serve as the first phase of more deployments across Europe.
Further details have not yet been shared.
Submer said its cooling technologies business unit will remain unchanged.
Founded in 2015 by Daniel Pope and Pol Valls Soler, Submer has historically provided indoor and outdoor single-phase immersion cooling pods and larger-scale containerized pods.
At the end of last year, the company secured $55.5 million in funding to scale immersion cooling.
In early September last year, Submer signed an agreement with UK colo firm Stellium Datacenters to deploy its immersion cooling solution at its data center campus in Newcastle.
