Veolia is working with Amazon to reduce data center water use and advance water reuse in Amazon’s data center operations in Mississippi, contributing to local water resilience while supporting Amazon’s goal to be water positive across its direct data center operations by 2030.
Turning Wastewater into Cooling Power for Data Centers
The first facility is expected to be operational in 2027, making it the first Amazon data center in Mississippi to use reclaimed water for cooling. Veolia, world leader in water technologies, will deploy autonomous, innovative containerized treatment systems that will transform effluent from nearby wastewater treatment plants and other available sources into cooling water that meets the quality standards required for industrial cooling processes.
The project is expected to reuse more than 83 million gallons of potable water per year once fully operational, equivalent to the annual water use of approximately 760 U.S. homes — estimated to be equivalent to the volume of water the data center would otherwise draw from local groundwater and potable water supplies.
The modular, containerized design of Veolia’s water treatment systems enables scalable deployment, allowing it to replicate the solution at Amazon facilities around the world where conditions are suitable, working alongside its industrial and municipal clients. This approach supports both partners’ ambition to advance responsible water stewardship and more sustainable data centers operations.
