Euronews Portugal9 September 2026 at 18:00

Qatar faces temperatures above 50°C during the summer months, which represents an extreme challenge for maintaining productivity and quality of life in the country.

To deal with this intense heat, Qatar invests in cutting-edge technology and advanced air conditioning systems that allow normal activities to continue even during the hottest months.

Among the implemented strategies, the air conditioning of entire neighborhoods and the development of architecture more focused on climate conditions stand out, seeking to create livable and comfortable environments.

With these solutions, Qatar is redefining the concept of living, working, and thriving in extreme temperatures, demonstrating how technological innovation can transform climate challenges into development opportunities.

Data center heat warms 11,000 homes in Denmark

A Meta data center in Odense, Denmark, is using the heat released by servers to warm nearly 11,000 homes. The facility transfers the thermal energy to the city's district heating network, where heat pumps raise the water temperature to 70-75°C. Denmark has ambitious plans to expand this solution on a larger scale, since almost all electricity consumed by a data center ends up converted into heat, representing a significant opportunity for energy efficiency and sustainability.
