The City of Coffeyville is launching a video series called "Data Center Discussions" to inform residents about potential data center development and answer their questions. The first episode covers water usage, including how much water is requested, the city's capacity, and closed-loop cooling systems. A public information session is also scheduled.
The City of Coffeyville, Kansas, has initiated a new video series titled "Data Center Discussions," led by City Manager Ben Brubaker, to educate residents on potential data center development within the community. The series aims to address questions and provide clarity on various aspects surrounding such projects.
The inaugural episode of "Data Center Discussions" focuses on the critical topic of water usage. In this segment, Brubaker details the amount of water currently being requested for a proposed data center, assesses Coffeyville's existing water capacity, and explains the operational principles of a closed-loop cooling system, among other related subjects.
