The Robot Report reports that Bedrock Robotics has raised $600 million to scale autonomous retrofit kits for excavators and heavy earthmoving machinery. Instead of asking general contractors to buy b…

Cooling retrofits require careful planning to protect live equipment, maintain uptime, manage thermal risks, and control operational costs.

A recent BC pilot project offers an early look at how a partnership‑driven retrofit model can make heat pump installations more practical.

Costs are 30% lower with an even load than with the realistic peaked winter heat demand. => What drives building retrofitting is NOT lowering overall energy demand, but rather reducing the heat deman...

Factory-fitted autonomy in BYD’s B90 suggests driverless buses are moving from pilot retrofits towards series-built products

There is little question that liquid cooling is becoming an increasingly attractive way to manage rising heat loads inside data centers, especially as operators deploy denser racks and more AI infrastructure. In many scenarios, liquid cooling can improve thermal efficiency and reduce dependence on large volumes of airflow. It can also help operators curb water use in designs that would otherwise rely heavily on evaporative cooling. The challenge, however, is that most existing data centers were not designed with liquid cooling in mind. Retrofitting an older facility to support liquid cooling can be technically feasible, but it is rarely simple. Here’s a look at why retrofits are difficult – and when the investment may still make sense. Why Liquid Cooling Retrofits Are Difficult From a logistical standpoint, installing liquid cooling is relatively easy when building a new data center. Designers can account for piping, rack loads, redundancy, heat rejection, and maintenance access from the start. It is much harder when an operator wants to retrofit an existing facility, whether to replace or supplement a traditional air-based cooling design. In that case, several challenges tend to stand in the way. Space Constraints Complicate Piping Liquid cooling systems require supply and return...
