- CyrusOne Zero Water Consumption Cooling: No water is consumed to cool this facility (such as water towers or evaporative cooling). Minimal amounts of water are used for humidification and facility maintenance. This facility uses highly efficiency chillers, variable frequency drives, and energy-efficient CRAH units to achieve high-efficiency air-cooled chilling. An average US data center of the same size typically consumes over 9.8 million gallons of water per month to cool them.
- Regional Water Risk: The Stamford area faces a medium-to-high risk of water supply disruption, which is expected increase to extremely high risk in the future. Unlike many other data centers, CyrusOne’s Stamford facility does not use water for cooling and is therefore insulated from regional water risk, both current and future.
| Water Risk and Use | Now | 2030 Projection | 2040 Projection |
| Regional Water Risk | Medium to high risk | Extremely High Risk | Extremely High Risk |
| CyrusOne Water Use | Zero Consumption | Zero Consumption | Zero Consumption |
