Hringvarmi: Transforming Data into Dinner
At Hringvarmi we are transforming data into dinner and firmly placing data centers at the heart of sustainable communities. We do this with our agri-tech solution that captures low-grade waste heat from data centers and harnesses into a purpose built module designed for food producers and innovators.
