Host AI compute in buildings

Zai Node pays building owners to host GPUs. Powered by the building's unused power (behind-the-meter) and stored in surplus space.

why host ai compute

Earn extra income, reduce costs

Hosting Zai Node's AI compute provides owners and tenants with:

Extra income

Zai Node pays for power and space. Earn margin on your power.

Reduce heating power costs

100% of GPU heat is reused in the building.

Improved ESG ratings

Building's improve ESG ratings, improving property values.

Discounted AI

Owners and tenants can access fast, discounted, sovereign AI.

HOW IT WORKS

Simple process from site feasibility to earning income

A simple, low risk solution, which makes a great impact to your P&L and society. Guaranteed no impact to your required power needs.

1

Suitability assessment (obligation free)

Together, we assess if your site is physically, technically and commercially suitable - available space, power infrastructure, power mix, power costs, data connectivity, HVAC systems, heat demand and cost profile.

2

Agree specifications and terms

Document key details of our equipment, location, how much you'll be paid for power and space, heat reuse, if you require AI compute.

3

Installation

We install our pre-configured portable server rack with our proprietary heat capture equipment, pre-tested for reliable operation.

4

Operations

We operate and maintain the AI computers. >99% can be done remotely, creating no impact on your operations and quiet enjoyment.

5

Compute produced

AI compute is available to you, your tenants and the open market. The hosted server forms part of Zai Node's global distributed AI compute business, running real AI workloads for organisations throughout the world.

6

Heat produced & reused

All offtake GPU heat is plumbed into your system. A novel heat exchanger transfers thermal energy (normally 50-60°C) to HVAC, HWS, or industrial equipment such as boilers, dryers etc.
