Heat Reuse is the capture of waste heat from data center equipment for a beneficial secondary use rather than rejecting it to the environment. In data centers it can supply space heating, domestic hot water, district heating networks, greenhouses or industrial processes, and is aided by liquid cooling's warmer, higher-grade heat. It improves overall energy efficiency and sustainability.
