So those type of infrastructure investments are being funded by us and the community will actually benefit from access to those pieces of infrastructure that hadn't been built before.
Generally, the water is either recycled captured or recycled desalinated.
It just depends on the region.
So Singapore have a great term for it.
They quite elegantly describe it as new water.
But water can be refined and recycled to different standards.
New water, but it's old water.
It's old water that has been recycled and it's now new water.
So yeah, so it's essentially sewer mining.
We tap into the sewer, we take the waste water, we recycle and treat the waste water and then use that water to cool computers.
I think it's highly likely that as the technology continues to evolve, every time we consider a new development, we'll use the best or most sustainable next available technology.
One of the key things that has continued to happen in the industry, and this is a key benefit of artificial intelligence itself,
the production of knowledge and the access to information and the quality of digital twins, our ability to completely build an infrastructure asset in a digital model and then apply that to the physical world is allowing us to improve the sustainability outcomes, not just in our industry, but in all industries.
The fact that you can build digital twins for almost every industry today to improve efficiency and sustainability outcomes will drive new developments for us to improve the way we run our business.
Yeah, look, it's important to remember no power, no computer, no lights.
So energy is the most important first component in the supply chain.
The key change over time has been the density in computing.
