Sapphire Technologies and Anax Power Partner on Modular Data Centers Using Gas Pipeline Pressure
Sapphire Technologies and Anax Power are creating modular data centers that convert excess pressure from gas pipelines into power and cooling. This partnership aims to enhance energy efficiency and thermal management in data centers, addressing critical industry challenges.

Sapphire Technologies will supply its FreeSpin In-line Turboexpander to Anax Power, which will utilize this technology for modular data centers located alongside gas pipelines. These data centers will convert excess pipeline pressure into emission-free electricity and cooling, potentially operational within months at various pressure regulating stations across the U.S.
Anticipated output includes up to 3MW of electricity and 35 million BTU of cooling capacity. This initiative targets improved energy redundancy and efficient infrastructure for applications like Edge AI and cryptocurrency mining, while providing a no-risk development model for pipeline operators.
