Super Micro And Nvidia Power Lambda's Zero-Emission Data Center For AI Training Expansion
Lambda has deployed hydrogen-powered Nvidia systems at its Mountain View campus, creating a zero-emission data center for AI training. The modular data center, built by Super Micro Computer, utilizes hydrogen fuel cells and advanced cooling systems. Lambda has expanded its footprint at ECL from 50% to 100%, aiming for sustainable AI infrastructure. Super Micro's AI Supercluster supports large-scale AI training. In market activity, SMCI shares rose 1.45% to $47.55, while NVDA shares fell 0.83%.
Lambda, the Superintelligence Cloud, deployed hydrogen-powered, production-grade Nvidia NVDA GB300 NVL72 systems at ECL's Mountain View campus. The off-grid modular data center, MV1, runs entirely on hydrogen fuel cells, offering zero emissions and zero water usage while supporting AI inference and large-scale model training.
Super Micro Computer SMCI built the GB300 NVL72 units, each drawing 142 kW of compute power and cooled through direct-to-chip liquid systems that recycle water produced during hydrogen energy generation.

Lambda fully integrated the 4,000-pound systems into the facility within two hours, setting a benchmark for rapidly deploying high-density AI infrastructure.
Ken Patchett, Lambda's VP of Data Center Infrastructure, said hydrogen-powered systems form the foundation for sustainable gigawatt-scale AI factories. To reinforce its commitment, Lambda doubled its footprint at ECL from 50% to 100%.
In August, Super Micro Computer announced that Lambda had deployed its graphics processing unit (GPU)-optimized servers, including Nvidia Blackwell-based systems, to expand its AI infrastructure. The rollout, anchored by Super Micro Computer's AI Supercluster with Nvidia GB200 and GB300 NVL72 racks, powers large-scale training and inference. Lambda's deployment also adds energy-efficient servers with advanced cooling, accelerating next-gen AI adoption as global tech giants drive record infrastructure spending.
Price Actions: SMCI shares were trading higher by 1.45% to $47.55 premarket at last check on Tuesday. NVDA is down 0.83%.
