This company provides Smart Heaters that integrate a computer server into a boiler system. The heat generated by the server's data processing is captured and reused to provide domestic heating and hot water. This solution aims to eliminate or drastically reduce natural gas consumption for heating purposes.

Problem
Traditional heating systems rely on fossil fuels or electricity, leading to high energy costs and significant carbon emissions. Waste heat generated by computer servers is often released into the environment, representing a significant loss of potential energy.
Solution
Hotta (formerly Therminer) offers a solution by utilizing "Smart Heaters" – advanced computational boilers that recycle heat generated by integrated computer servers to provide heating and hot water. The Smart Heater replaces conventional boilers, integrating a server that processes data while simultaneously producing heat as a byproduct. This heat is then captured and used to heat water, reducing or eliminating the need for gas or other fuels. By recycling waste heat, Hotta reduces energy consumption, lowers heating costs, and promotes a more sustainable approach to heating.
Target Audience
Hotta's primary customers include homeowners, businesses (such as hotels, gyms, and heated pool facilities), and data centers seeking to reduce energy costs, lower their carbon footprint, and implement sustainable heating solutions.
