Those cradles would be universal in their size and shape, meaning third-party turbines could be attached with relative ease — slipping in like plugs into an electrical wall socket.
The way Wolfson sees it, his project harnesses the cool temperatures and immense energy of the Atlantic to address two of the biggest challenges with data centers — their electricity consumption and cooling needs.
