CoolIT Systems Demonstrates 15kW Coldplate, Extending Single-Phase DLC Roadmap Far Beyond 2030
CALGARY, Alberta, June 4, 2026 — CoolIT Systems (CoolIT) has announced that it developed the first 15kW coldplate design. Delivering nearly four times the performance of earlier single-phase direct liquid cooling (DLC) coldplate designs, this breakthrough demonstrates that single-phase DLC can scale to meet the thermal demands of future ultra-high-density GPUs and AI accelerators. “Single-phase […] The post CoolIT Systems Demonstrates 15kW Coldplate, Extending Single-Phase DLC Roadmap Far Beyond 2030 appeared first on HPCwire .
The rapid increase in AI accelerator power consumption is pushing existing cooling solutions to their limits, creating an urgent demand for more efficient thermal management.
This breakthrough extends the viability of single-phase direct liquid cooling for high-performance computing, crucial for the continued scaling of AI and other data-intensive applications.
The ability to cool 15kW chips with single-phase DLC significantly lowers the anticipated urgency for more complex two-phase cooling solutions and reduces the energy footprint of future data centers.

Increased power density in data centers without proportional increases in cooling infrastructure footprint.
Reduced operational costs for data centers due to lower energy consumption for cooling and fewer hardware failures due to overheating.
Potentially accelerated pace of AI development as thermal constraints become less of a limiting factor for higher-power next-generation chips.
