SUMMARY:Energy Industry Overview Map - AI Data Centers: Advanced Cooling
DESCRIPTION:Print PDFPrintThis webinar will focus on the advanced cooling and thermal management needs for AI Data Centers. Data centers require advanced cooling solutions—such as direct-to-chip liquid cooling\, microchannel cold plates\, and pumped two-phase systems—to efficiently manage heat from high-power CPUs and GPUs.\nRack-level cooling technologies\, including forced convection\, heat pipes\, and thermosyphons\, are critical for supporting high-density server racks and ensuring reliable thermal performance. Facility-level systems like CRAHs\, CRACs\, dry coolers\, and cooling towers handle large-scale heat loads while maximizing energy efficiency and maintaining precise temperature control. Integration of smart controls and monitoring enables scalable operations\, improved energy management\, and supports evolving data center infrastructure needs. \nThe Energy & Manufacturing in Appalachia (EMA) project helps manufactures understand and navigate opportunities in the vast energy supply chains. The EMA team\, along with outside experts\, have developed supply chain maps for each energy segment or sub-segment to help manufacturers navigate these industry sectors. \nThe supply chain maps provide introductory overview of the market size\, key drivers\, supply chain needs\, and components for each of the specific segments. \nRegister \nThe AI Data Centers: Advanced Cooling was drafted by Dr. Deborah Stine. Deb is the Founder of the Science & Technology Policy Academy which provides independent consulting\, policy analysis\, program evaluation\, freelance writing\, teaching\, and coaching services. Previously\, she served in the Obama White House as Executive Director of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) that led to the establishment of the Advanced Manufacturing Partnership and the creation of the Manufacturing USA Institutes. \nPrint PDFPrint

SUMMARY:Energy Industry Overview Map - Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) from Anaerobic Digesters
DESCRIPTION:Print PDFPrintRenewable natural gas (RNG)\, also known as biomethane\, is a renewable energy source made by upgrading biogas—a gas produced from the decomposition of organic waste—to a quality similar to fossil natural gas. \nAs the demand increases for renewables\, RNG is seeing market growth from landfill gas and anerobic digesters. This webinar will focus on the market for anerobic digesters\, growth potential\, and components needs such as digester tanks\, feedstock input systems\, gas collection and storage\, mixing system and more. \nThe RNG from Anaerobic Digester supply chain was drafted by the Penn State Extension Energy Team\, which gathered content and information from a variety of sources referenced within the document. The Penn State Extension Energy Team is committed to providing science-based\, general education on numerous energy-related topics. To contact the team or for more information\, go to www.extension.psu.edu/energy. \nThe Energy & Manufacturing in Appalachia (EMA) project helps manufactures understand and navigate opportunities in the vast energy supply chains. The EMA team\, along with outside experts\, have developed supply chain maps for each energy segment or sub-segment to help manufacturers navigate these industry sectors. \nThe supply chain maps provide introductory overview of the market size\, key drivers\, supply chain needs\, and components for each of the specific segments. Additional resources are provided to learn more about the industry and keep up to date on the latest advancements\, opportunities\, and potential funding opportunities as well. \nRegister \nPrint PDFPrint
