Innovative passive cooling system for eco-responsible data centers.

Founded in March 2026 and supported by the Inria Center of the University of Lorraine, Greenfield IT develops passive cooling solutions for HPC infrastructures and data centers.

Greenfield IT's objective is to ensure the technological reliability of servers while meeting the growing ecological and economic demands. This initiative is part of a national and European strategy to strengthen digital sovereignty.
The company focuses on developing passive cooling technologies, an approach that minimizes energy consumption compared to traditional cooling systems. This method helps maintain servers at optimal temperatures without relying on energy-intensive systems, thus contributing to reducing the carbon footprint of data centers.
The support from the Inria Center of the University of Lorraine highlights the importance of research and innovation in this sector. This collaboration aims to validate and optimize the solutions offered by Greenfield IT, leveraging academic expertise to address the technical challenges associated with thermal management in high-performance computing infrastructures.
