Facility facts
Power, cooling and efficiency figures for Livermore Computing Center, each with its own source and date.
| Fact | Value | As of | Basis | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Facility power | 85 MW NNSA announced completion of the Exascale Computing Facility Modernization on 2022-06-08: 85 MW to the computing floor, up from 45 MW. Federal project record, hence regulatory_filing. | 2022-06 | Regulatory filing | energy.govllnl.gov |
| Cooling | Cooling-tower water cooling expanded from 10,000 tons to 28,000 tons with six added 3,000-ton towers; warmer water used to reduce chiller and pump load LLNL article dated 2021-10-18, written before project completion. | 2021-10 | Operator stated | llnl.gov |
| Power supplier | Pacific Gas and Electric and the Western Area Power Administration (WAPA); 115 kV line into a new switchyard with two 40 MW substation transformers LLNL article dated 2021-10-18; WAPA operates and maintains part of the supply. | 2021-10 | Operator stated | llnl.gov |

Facility fields are recorded only where a public source states them. Blank means we have not found one, not that the value is zero: an important distinction if you are aggregating power or PUE across sites.
