2CRSi supplies Exaion, a subsidiary of the EDF Group, with high-performance immersion servers in North America.
Brossard (Quebec), Montreal (Quebec), November 21, 2024 - 2CRSi Canada, a leader in the design and manufacturing of
high-performance, energy-efficient servers, is providing Exaion, a subsidiary of the EDF Group, with a set of immersion
servers in Canada. This eco-friendly[1] solution has enabled Exaion to provide its clients with servers dedicated to
AI. The heat generated by the data center will be reused to supply nearby homes and businesses with heating and
domestic hot water.
Following the announcement of an initial collaboration between 2CRSi and Exaion in September 2023[2] aimed at reducing
electricity and water consumption through innovative cooling solutions, their Canadian subsidiaries are now deploying
an immersion tank.
Exaion is equipping one of its data centers with one of the best cooling solutions available on the market. This
enables the EDF Group subsidiary to recover 100% of the heat generated by its servers[3] and reintegrate it into the
local network to supply the surrounding neighborhood.

Beyond the environmental challenge, this deployment will enable public and private stakeholders to perform
strategically significant computations in Canada and around the world.
As part of this collaboration, 2CRSi provided an immersion tank along with around thirty OCtoPus 1.4 servers equipped
with over 100 NVIDIA L40-S GPUs. These servers are designed, developed, and manufactured in France by 2CRSi.
Regarding this partnership, Alain Wilmouth states: "Beyond the sales of our solutions, this partnership allows 2CRSi to
strengthen its position in North America. Our goal is to become a key player in this region of the world. Furthermore,
we are very proud to equip Exaion's projects with one of the best eco-friendly power solutions on the market."
For his part, Faith Balyeli, CEO and co-founder of Exaion, adds: "The integration of cooling solutions and GPU servers
developed by 2CRSi into our infrastructure represents a significant step forward for Exaion. These technologies not
only allow us to optimize our energy performance but also meet the growing needs of our clients for high-performance
computing. Their deployment highlights our commitment to offering increasingly innovative and sustainable solutions to
North American stakeholders."
