Bluestone Energy’s Director of Data Center Services Coy Stine was recently interviewed in the Boston Business journal article titled “Local firms tap data center energy-efficiency market”. From the article:
At Bluestone Energy Services, an engineering and project development firm founded in 1990, the opportunity for data centers has become a major focus over the past two years and has picked up speed this year, said Coy Stine, Bluestone’s director of data center services.
The company designs custom energy-saving projects for data center cooling systems, which can cut 15 percent to 20 percent of a center’s power use, Stine said. Some recent projects have cost in the range of $200,000 but have received incentives from their utilities to cover nearly half of the cost, allowing for a payback period of less than two years, Stine said.
