Exciting news from Lisbon! MERLIN Properties and Edged announced today the start of construction on their new 180 MW high-tech campus. The state-of-the-art facility will boast five data centers, use 100% renewable energy and deliver waterless cooling and ultra-efficient operations built for the demands of generative AI and advanced compute.
At a time of growing water scarcity, the Lisbon campus is expected to save nearly 2.7 billion liters of water each year compared to conventional data centers.
As Jakob Carnemark, the founder of the Edged platform, explains it, “We are on a mission to create data centers for positive impact and are proud to be part of Portugal’s fast-growing digital economy.”

🌟 Exciting Contributions from the CSE Research Group at ERRA DeepWind 2025! 🌟
We're thrilled to share that our master's student, Bjørn Eirik Rognskog Nordbak, represented the Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) Research Group - NMBU at the ERRA DeepWind 2025 Conference in Trondheim, Norway, showcasing two impactful posters that highlight our ongoing research in wind energy:
1️⃣ Wind Farm Layout Optimization Using Machine Learning-Enhanced Wake Modeling and SLSQP Optimization Techniques
This study introduces a computational framework that integrates Random Forest regression with SLSQP optimization to optimize turbine layouts in wind farms. The framework improves the Annual Energy Production (AEP) while demonstrating remarkable scalability and adaptability for application in larger wind farms. 🚀
2️⃣ Leveraging Data-Driven Techniques in LiDAR and SCADA Data of a Wind Farm
By applying advanced data-driven techniques like XGBoost and Bi-LSTM to analyze offshore wind farm data, we unveiled new opportunities to enhance operational efficiency. This ongoing work leverages insights from Anholt and Westermost Rough wind farms, achieving good predictive accuracy and time-series forecasting capabilities. 📊
A big thank you to our collaborators for their support! 🙌

How can we meet the world's increasing energy demands while also making strides towards our sustainability goals? Sometimes, it's hard for us to know which technology or ideas we should pursue or support.
A recent technical report by our very own Virtus Solis Technologies' Founder and CEO, John Bucknell, examines whether Space-Based Solar Power (SBSP) could be a competitive and sustainable solution for future energy markets.
The report analyzes recent technological advances and the decrease in space launch costs that now make SBSP an attainable option for generating energy.
It evaluates seven SBSP system designs, including ones previously proposed by NASA, and recent studies backed by ESA from companies like Fraser-Nash, Roland Berger, and Thales Alenia. It also looks at Virtus Solis’ own Lucidus hyper-modular architecture.
The report emphasizes the importance of Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) for evaluating the economic viability of these systems—excluding R&D costs but considering expenses related to building, operating, and maintaining power plants and ground stations. The analysis assumes on-orbit robotic assembly but Earth-based manufacturing of satellite materials.
This research thoroughly investigates SBSP as a potential answer to the pressing global energy requirements. It suggests that SBSP could offer a cost-effective, renewable energy solution, delivering clean power directly to grid-connected customers and large-scale users like data centers and green hydrogen production facilities.
The findings underline SBSP’s potential to significantly contribute to the global transition to renewable energy sources, addressing both energy security and environmental concerns.
Virtus Solis' Lucidus design introduces an innovative hyper-modular approach enabling rapid scaling and deployment flexibility. With a very competitive LCOE, it strengthens the case for SBSP as a key solution for the world's future energy needs and sustainability goals.
