Data Center Efficiency and Water Usage
Uh, my name is Doug Seavey. I live at thirty-three
ninety-two sixty-four Street, Palo, Iowa.
Um, I've called the mayor and suggested that I get put on some
kind of a committee because I'm Palo's resident expert.
I build data centers, I own data centers.
I built the first private data center in the state of Iowa,
and everything that Google is telling you is BS.
I have, I have a data center right now that's
running in Hiawatha, and
I have been there fourteen years and have never used one gallon of
water.
What Google isn't telling you is they don't wanna use the technology
because it costs more. They're gonna burn through the water,
and when
it's done, it's done, and they don't care. Then they'll put the money in.
And so I can guarantee you, if you guys wanna start a committee,
I'll volunteer because I'm the expert. I build them.
I'm working on one right now, I'm working on one in Milwaukee.
I live here, and if my well... I told you on the phone, I called you and
talked to you, and I said, "You should really help--
let me help you." I never
heard anything back. And I warned you, I said, "My well goes dry,
I'm coming after you because I know what's going on."
And, and you can't do this.
You guys have to say, "No water." They don't
have to have it.
I mean,
to give you an idea, you people, how many people in here have heard of
UnityPoint Health?
No. Yeah.
Okay. All right. I have a hundred percent of their
IT in my data center, and I've never used a gallon of
water, and I'm the most efficient data center in
the
world.
So this is all crap, and you guys don't wanna listen.
In fact, you know, I called you and said, "Maybe we
should talk." Never heard back from you.
So if you guys wanna put a committee together, you can call me.
I'll tell you the truth, and I can explain everything to you how
this works,
because they're lying to you
big time. There's absolutely no reason to use a
gallon of water.
And the same thing on the efficiency of the electricity, they're doing the
cheapest way they can. All they wanna do is get the gravy,
and when
it turns to shit, they're gone. Google is not our friend.
So anybody who wants to talk to me, I'll sit over here afterwards,
and I'll explain it to you. So
if you would like, I would be more than happy to be on your
committee to
work on this because I am the expert.
I build them. I know.
Thanks.
Thank you, Doug.
