Clean compute, where the grid can't reach.

Deployable, low-power sovereign & enterprise edge — sold, supported and refreshed with a managed energy-and-security operating layer. Renewable-powered micro data centres that go live in days on on-site solar and battery, sidestepping the multi-year grid queue.

The problem

The compute boom has hit a power wall

Demand for compute is soaring, but power and grid access — not chips — have become the binding constraint. Capacity can't be plugged in fast enough, and the big hubs are full.

~945 TWh
Projected global data-centre electricity demand by 2030 — roughly double 2025 (IEA).
7–10+ yrs
Typical grid-connection queues for new capacity across the UK and Europe.
Hubs full
Major markets such as Amsterdam and Dublin have curbed or paused new large builds.
What we do

A complete data centre the size of a container module

Each Green EDGE Data unit is a self-contained micro data centre — similar in size to a 20- or 40-ft container — built to spec and delivered ready to connect. Efficient, low-power compute and an integrated energy system let it run clean and quiet, close to where data is created and used.

Inside a Green EDGE Data module — low-power compute and on-site energy storage
  • Modular & plug-and-playself-contained units built off-site and delivered ready to run; live in days, not years.
  • Energy-efficient, low-power computea fraction of the power and cooling of conventional GPU racks, with far less waste heat.
  • Renewable + storageon-site solar/wind and battery storage, with off-peak top-up and a small backup generator.
  • Grid-lightruns largely on stored renewable energy, sidestepping the multi-year connection queue.
How it works

Inside the module

Compute, storage, generation and connectivity, integrated into one weatherproof unit and managed remotely — engineered for unmanned operation at the edge.

Interior of a compact, low-power edge computing module

Efficient compute

High performance-per-watt, low-power servers — simple cooling, minimal heat.

🔋

Storage

On-site battery charged by renewables and cheap off-peak power.

☀️

Generation

On-site solar/wind, with a small backup generator as a safety net.

🌐

Connectivity

High-speed fibre and low-latency network access at the point of demand.

Why now

Four tailwinds, all accelerating

Edge AI

Inference is moving out of the core and toward users and devices.

5G & MEC

Low-latency services need compute at the network edge.

IoT

Tens of billions of connections — process locally, don't backhaul.

Regulation

EU rules increasingly favour low-carbon, renewable-powered compute.

Telecom & 5G edge · the anchor

A module of your own at the mast

A self-contained module at towers and exchanges delivers mobile-edge compute exactly where it's needed — yours to own and to host whoever you choose, installed inside a secure, fenced compound with CCTV and controlled access for unattended, carrier-grade operation.

Deployed fast

Live in days — grid-queue-free

Because each unit is built off-site and carries its own power and cooling, deployment is measured in days. Sites that would wait years for a grid connection can be serving traffic this quarter.

Commercial options

You buy the module. We run the compute.

You own the module. The compute inside it is delivered as a service — we own the nodes, maintain them, and replace them with current-generation hardware every term, automatically. Every module is sold with the managed-support contract attached. We do not supply modules for customers to run themselves, and we do not lease the module itself: you own the asset, we stay accountable for keeping it running.

🛠️

Supported purchase — the way we sell

You own the module. We monitor it, maintain it, and manage energy and security under SLA.

🤝

One accountable party

You own the asset; we are answerable for it running. No split responsibility when something fails at 3am.

🔄

Lifecycle support

A fixed annual fee keeps the module monitored, maintained and secure for its whole working life.

Compute as a service

You never buy the compute, and never buy a refresh. We own the nodes and replace them with current-generation hardware every term — seven generations over twenty-one years, not four.

Layered services

Add edge-AI inference and managed services on top of any module as your needs grow.

🪶

Why the cheque is smaller

Taking the compute out of the purchase roughly halves what you pay at delivery, and moves the residual and obsolescence risk of the hardware off your balance sheet and onto ours.

Why we're different

Built for the efficient edge — not the megawatt race

Most of the industry is chasing ever-larger, power-hungry facilities. We do the opposite: small, grid-light, efficient units placed exactly where the demand is.

Power
The field: grid-tied, or reliant on stranded grid power.
Green EDGE: grid-light — on-site solar/wind + battery.
Footprint
The field: megawatt halls chasing large-scale AI.
Green EDGE: micro modules sized for the real edge — towers, exchanges, urban sites.
Compute
The field: power-hungry racks and heavy cooling.
Green EDGE: efficiency-first compute — the same resident model capacity inside about 17× less facility power.
Workloads
The field: centralised capacity, far from users.
Green EDGE: 5G/MEC, edge-AI, smart-city and caching — next to users.
The efficiency is not primarily a saving

It is what makes the siting possible — and the siting is what makes the capacity obtainable at all.

~42 kW
our facility envelope
~704 kW
the same model capacity held on GPU infrastructure
1.84×
less energy per unit of memory bandwidth delivered
4 hours
contracted autonomy, sized to the full facility load

Generating tokens from a large language model is limited by memory bandwidth, not raw arithmetic — the weights must be read for every token produced. Unified-memory silicon holds the model and reads it fast for very little power. Holding the same capacity in high-bandwidth memory on conventional GPU infrastructure needs roughly 704 kW of facility power: a data hall, three-phase supply, mechanical cooling and a grid connection quoted in years. Ours is a 42 kW load — small enough that a new grid connection is not the starting point for a deployment. That is why we can put capacity where conventional infrastructure cannot go — and why a competitor holding a place in a connection queue cannot shorten it.

Comparator: published NVIDIA DGX H100 specification at a typical enterprise PUE. Our per-node power is an estimate until the silicon ships, so the energy comparison is stated as a range of 1.63×–2.12×; across that range the module’s annual consumption varies by under a tenth of one per cent, so the bill is fixed by the envelope and only the capability it buys moves. We make no claim about the cost of a token — that is set by the model providers.

Sustainability

Green by design, not by offset

Sustainability is built into the unit economics, not bolted on. On-site renewables and storage, a low power draw and minimal cooling mean a low PUE and a genuinely smaller footprint per unit of compute.

Where we operate

UK, Ireland & Europe

United Kingdom

Our primary market now — data centres are Critical National Infrastructure, and high power prices and grid queues reward an efficient, grid-light model.

Ireland

A distinctive niche — small, renewable-powered modules fit where large builds face grid constraints around Dublin.

Europe

The scale opportunity — hub saturation plus fast-growing secondary markets and strong sustainability and sovereignty drivers.

Funding & ecosystem

Funded for the efficient edge — inside the Cambridge deep-tech cluster

We're raising a £5.30m seed to scale clean edge capacity across the UK, Ireland and Europe — stretched by non-dilutive grants and R&D incentives, de-risked by the Cambridge deep-tech ecosystem, and backed by SEIS/EIS reliefs for qualifying investors.

🎯

Non-dilutive: grants & R&D

Innovate UK Smart Grants, KTP and Ofgem SIF, Eurostars / Horizon Europe, plus R&D tax credits and Patent Box — cost-share that stretches the equity.

🚀

Accelerator route

A route through a Cambridge deep-tech accelerator (e.g. Deeptech Labs — backed by Arm and the University of Cambridge): programme, seed investment and a strong investor network.

🛡️

Investor reliefs: SEIS / EIS

The equity backbone — SEIS 50% / EIS 30% income-tax relief plus CGT reliefs for qualifying UK investors, subject to eligibility and HMRC advance assurance.

🔒

Intellectual property

Our defensible position is the renewable-coupled control and energy-management layer, not the enclosure and not the silicon. That layer is the subject of an active pre-filing patent review with UK patent attorneys. We do not publish its detail, and we make no claim to any granted or pending right.
