The Vessel

A data centre that brings its own power plant.

HEARTHCube is a sovereign, off-grid AI data centre engineered into two forty-foot ISO containers. It is designed to generate its own electricity, recover and reuse heat through a five-stage cascade, and keep customer data inside the deployment boundary.

The machine

Two containers, one organism.

Container Alpha

The compute

Configured for approximately 131 petaFLOPs of sparse FP8 performance in a single-phase dielectric immersion bath rather than blown air. Dense, quiet and thermally efficient by design.

Container Bravo

The power plant

A Convion C60 solid-oxide fuel cell feeding ORC turbines, with hybrid vanadium-flow and sodium-ion storage, a phase-change thermal buffer, and the five-stage cascade. It generates; it does not merely distribute.

The cascade

The same heat, spent five times.

A conventional facility makes heat once and vents it. HEARTHCube runs that heat down a five-stage cascade, each stage claiming what the last could not use, until more than ninety-five percent of it has done real work before anything is released.

Stages one and two

Fuel-cell exhaust is the hottest headwater. ORC turbines turn grade-A heat back into electricity for the compute.

Stages three and four

Mid-grade heat drives cooling and process loads. District hot water warms buildings and neighbourhoods at tariff.

Stage five

The last usable warmth: greenhouses, pre-heat, snow-melt. Only then is anything released.

The honest physics, stated first. HEARTHCube does not break the second law of thermodynamics and never claims to. It extracts far more useful work, exergy, from each unit of fuel before the remainder is released. The advance is in what we capture, not in physics repealed.

Who it is for

Where shared facilities are untenable.

  • Regulated healthcare. Workloads with privacy, governance or resilience requirements that favour dedicated on-premises infrastructure.
  • Defence and federal. Designed for sovereign and air-gapped deployment pathways where policy, contract or mission requirements demand tighter control.
  • Grid-locked enterprise. Capital ready, no power available, years in the interconnection queue.
  • Remote and off-grid sites. Where there is no grid to wait for at all.
