We need to understand who is affected by it and its solution.
Chip Thinking® is a systematic approach to dissecting the critical components of a data centre facility.By methodically breaking down these elements, we unlock insights that drive design improvements and performance optimisation.
Our unique modelling and analytics team—comprising architects, engineers, mathematical modellers, software coders, and data analysts—creates a strategic way of thinking and working that brings information to life.. Data aggregation + analysis.The diagram above shows the process of using Chip Thinking® to elicit and capture stakeholder requirements at a range of scales, from a single component up to site deployment.. Chips serve as a unified knowledge hub where all data and stakeholder insights converge, providing a comprehensive understanding for everyone involved.Through digital simulations, 4D planning, and automated configuration tools, stakeholders can fine-tune facility designs to meet standard requirements, optimising every aspect.. By digitally modelling processes or assets as Chips, we can quickly assess their current effectiveness and explore potential changes across diverse scenarios.
This depth of analysis is impossible when focusing solely on individual components.Chips allow easy value adjustments that support targeted process optimisation, leading to seamless improvements in productivity.. Planning for the future becomes straightforward, allowing consideration of various data variables, such as market trends, and calculating their impact on energy or space requirements.
Testing multiple options reveals the optimum capital investment to maximise future flexibility across different markets.. Benefits of modelling using chips.
Once a client’s requirements are thoroughly assessed, a Chip library becomes a powerful tool for the design team, offering:.We need solutions not only for coal, but also for liquid fuels.
Terra Praxis is focusing on the most significant of energy initiatives, including oil and gas.Currently, 100 million barrels of oil are used per day, with more than half of our global energy predicted to still be coming from fossil fuels by mid-century.
This reality would lead to a three to four degree trajectory of warming, and a very bad environmental outcome.. One potential decarbonisation solution Terra Praxis has been exploring is the possibility of very low-cost, large-scale hydrogen production.Hydrogen is difficult to store, transport and move around, so it isn’t particularly useful as an end product, as it would require a lot of new infrastructure for end users.
