Ana Sayfaya Dön

Oregon-based startup Panthalassa is developing floating AI data centers powered by wave energy. The 85-meter-long system uses seawater to cool AI chips while turbines generate electricity from ocean waves. A prototype called Ocean-2 is already being tested off the coast of Washington, with AI data transmitted through SpaceX's Starlink network.

Next up, these floating data centers are the cause of ocean warming...

Lets raise the ocean temperature further. Great idea.

This will heat the oceans and have devastating environmental impact.

Trying to be environmentally friendly while warming the ocean directly. Nice.

I am wondering if it is causing some damage to marine ecosystems or not.

Harnessing oceanic power is a difficult engineering problem Saltwater corrosion, biofouling, extreme storms, and powerful forces require heavily over-engineered, expensive structures that still face high failure and maintenance risks. Access for repairs is weather-dependent and costly.

Another bullshit idea for stupid investors. Every single try to create energy from waves or the ocean have been a nightmare due to corrosion.

-sigh- the thing all these ocean deployed systems fail to recognize is the harshness of the ocean environment and the amount of maintenance and refurb needed to keep them from destruction.

Data centers are being used to train superintelligent AIs to replace humans everywhere. Environmentally sound data centers - if that what these are supposed to be - are just a smoother path to extinction. They are chocolate-flavored arsenic.

The issue is, they wouldn’t generate enough electricity to power a very big GPU.

@ekpodar There have been so many complaints about water usage that they just started putting the data centers in the water

How many of these things would need to be floating around the ocean with long ass cords connecting to mainland, ugh.

force open source ocean vessels must install to account for social impacts cuz thar be scammers cap’n but also net benefits send data to Starmind while harnessing wave, solar and SMRs think of the good we do compounding this system. Wars are cancelled. Back to your corners.

This just seems completely idiotic from the start. Let's fill the surrounding coastlines with giant floating balls said no one ever.

@TherealCurtJ If they could pull it off, wouldn't this be better than putting them near population centers?

intriguing idea, but my quick back of the envelope calculation tells me it's implausible these systems can generate anywhere near enough electrical power to power even a modest data center.

@shamilsh 水が動く経路の清掃のメカニズムがどうなっているのかな。 貝類や藻類は強烈。フジツボ対策に船底塗装も一年毎に塗り直すらしい。 パイプ状になってるなら、なお難しいと思うが…

The AI infrastructure race just went underwater. A Portland, Oregon startup called Panthalassa just raised $140 million in a Series B round led by Peter Thiel, the idea sounds wild until you understand the physics. Every AI data center on Earth has the same three problems, it needs massive amounts of electricity, it generates enormous heat that has to be cooled, and it requires land in places that are already running out of grid capacity. Panthalassa's answer is to eliminate all three constraints at once by taking the data center off the grid, off the land, and into the open ocean. And here's how it works, the company builds autonomous, self-propelled floating nodes made from plate steel, no anchor, no fuel, no cable to shore. As waves lift the platform, water is forced through an internal turbine, generating electricity continuously. That electricity runs AI inference chips onboard and the results go back to shore via low-Earth-orbit satellite. The surrounding ocean provides free supercooling, which one investor estimates could generate power at roughly two cents per kilowatt-hour. For context on why this matters, land based data centers spend up to 40% of their total energy budget just on cooling. Microsoft's Project Natick found that submerged servers had a failure rate of just 0.7% compared to 5.9% on land. The ocean doesn't just solve the cost problem but it solves the reliability problem too. Panthalassa's Ocean 3 pilot nodes are already under construction, with deployment in the northern Pacific targeted for August 2026 and commercial operations in 2027. The company has been building toward this for a decade with Ocean-1, Ocean-2, and Wavehopper prototypes already validated at sea, including a test in Puget Sound in 2024. The global underwater data center market was $3.2 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach $14.8 billion by 2034. China has already launched commercial-scale undersea data centers. The race to compute off the grid whether in space, underwater, or on the open ocean is no longer theoretical, it's being funded, permitted, and in Panthalassa's case, it's being built right now. The future is bright!
