Europe's existing data centers face a growing challenge: how to accommodate next-generation AI infrastructure and high-density computing without rebuilding facilities from scratch. Many legacy sites were never designed for today's rack power densities, liquid cooling requirements, or increasing energy efficiency expectations. However, retrofitting does not necessarily mean replacing the entire cooling infrastructure.

This speaking explores a phased, practical approach to data center retrofitting, combining facility assessments, energy optimization, MEP engineering, and advanced liquid cooling technologies.
