EdgeSynergies is set to showcase its pioneering UKRI-funded project under the Digital Security by Design (DSbD) programme at the upcoming UK Digital Security by Design Showcase. This landmark event highlights the company’s advancements in secure, sustainable edge data centres, designed to deliver low-latency computing while repurposing waste heat for decarbonisation—an essential step towards the UK’s digital future, economic resilience, and Net Zero ambitions.
Introducing MoatE: A New Era of Secure and Sustainable Edge Computing
At the event, EdgeSynergies will unveil MoatE (Morello at the Edge), a cutting-edge edge computing solution that redefines the industry’s approach to energy efficiency and security. MoatE enables data centres to convert waste heat into usable energy, supporting urban heat networks and reinforcing the UK’s commitment to sustainable, low-latency digital infrastructure. This breakthrough aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG), positioning the UK as a global leader in secure, climate-conscious technology.
MoatE’s innovative design combines state-of-the-art cybersecurity measures with energy reuse technology, ensuring data centres remain resilient to cyber threats while contributing to environmental sustainability. As businesses and governments seek solutions that balance security, performance, and carbon reduction, MoatE sets a new standard for the future of edge computing ecosystems.
Meeting the Rising Demand for Secure, High-Performance Edge Computing
The increasing adoption of AI, IoT, AV, VR, and edge computing has driven unprecedented demand for ultra-secure, high-performance, and energy-efficient edge data centres. EdgeSynergies’ MoatE integrates the UKRI-backed Morello architecture, embedding next-generation digital security principles to safeguard against cyber threats while ensuring high-efficiency computing. By combining advanced security with innovative energy solutions, MoatE represents a transformative step towards a more sustainable and resilient digital infrastructure.
Traditional data centres are energy-intensive, often generating excess heat that is wasted. MoatE takes a radically different approach by capturing and redirecting this heat for beneficial uses such as district heating and commercial applications, ensuring every watt of energy is optimally utilised. This approach not only reduces operational costs but also significantly contributes to carbon neutrality efforts.
Industry Leaders Champion a Secure and Climate-Positive Digital Future
Joydeep Mondal, Founder & CEO of EdgeSynergies, highlighted the significance of this innovation:
“The UK is at a pivotal moment in shaping the future of secure and sustainable computing. EdgeSynergies’ MoatE marks a major advancement—merging cutting-edge cybersecurity with circular economy principles to transform edge data centres into green energy hubs. We are thrilled to present MoatE at the DSbD Showcase and invite governments, investors, and industry leaders to join us in scaling this groundbreaking solution.”
Margaret Blight, Co-Founder & CCO of EdgeSynergies, emphasised the critical role of sustainable solutions:
“The meteoric rise of AI inference is driving an insatiable demand for edge compute. Without green solutions, this revolution could have a devastating impact on energy consumption, water usage, and carbon emissions. MoatE enables us to decarbonise computing by repurposing waste heat for community benefit. Our work under the UKRI Digital Security by Design programme underscores the urgency of embedding security at the silicon level while tackling the environmental impact of computing infrastructure. We urge policymakers, industry leaders, and technology innovators to support this mission and accelerate the adoption of climate-positive digital infrastructure.”
An Open Invitation to Shape the Future of Edge Computing
