Facility facts

Power, cooling and efficiency figures for RIKEN Center for Computational Science, each with its own source and date.

FactValueAs ofBasisSource
Cooling Fugaku uses cold-water cooling with 15 C inlet; chiller plant of 4 absorption chillers (5.98 MW), 3 centrifugal (4.93 MW) and 1 centrifugal (2.46 MW) with cooling towers RIKEN R-CCS slides at the SCA25 energy efficiency workshop; absorption chillers are driven by steam from the gas-turbine cogeneration. 2025-03 Operator stated ee-workshop.for.lrz.de
Power supplier Grid supply at 77 kV stepped to 6.6 kV and 200 V, plus on-site gas turbine generators (5 MW x 2) covering 20-25 percent of site consumption and acting as backup RIKEN facility page confirms two 5000 kW-class cogeneration systems. 2025-03 Operator stated ee-workshop.for.lrz.deriken.jp
Power supplier Reuses the K computer site's existing cogeneration power plant and high-voltage substation, with electrical equipment expanded for Fugaku 2021 Operator stated r-ccs.riken.jp
Cooling Expanded chilled-water plant; Fugaku racks use 9 parts water cooling to 1 part air cooling 2021 Operator stated r-ccs.riken.jp

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.
