INTRODUCING TEP: THE FUTURE OF AI COMPUTING IN MODULAR DATA CENTERS
The Future of AI Computing in Modular Data Centers
​
As AI research, training, and deployment scale rapidly, so does the demand for power and compute. The challenge? Traditional data centers are hitting bottlenecks. Securing power for a 100 MW facility can take years, and the economics are getting harder to justify. This is where the opportunity lies for a new breed of AI compute infrastructure—one that is rugged, scalable, and purpose-built for modular data centers.
​
At TEP, we’re building computers for the future of AI deployment: field-ready, high-performance machines designed to operate in the most demanding environments. Our systems are not crafted for air-conditioned glass towers or spotless data centers. Instead, they are engineered to thrive in containerized data centers, often located in remote areas where power is available and affordable.
​
The Rise of Modular AI Data Centers
​
Modular data centers are already a growing trend, particularly among industries like Bitcoin mining, where power costs and deployment speed are critical. We predict that AI companies will soon follow suit, taking advantage of smaller, more agile 10–25 MW data centers. This shift represents a new frontier in AI infrastructure, where the focus will be on performance, efficiency, and rapid deployment—not aesthetics or legacy conventions.
​
TEP’s role in this emerging niche is clear: we will provide the computing power that fuels the next wave of AI breakthroughs. By designing high-power density servers that are optimized for field deployment, we allow AI companies to go where the power is—whether that’s in central Oregon or beyond.
​
Performance and Reliability Over Everything
​
The ethos behind TEP is simple: performance and reliability matter more than polish. Our systems are designed with simplicity in mind. Every component is chosen to ensure ease of maintenance and repair in the field, minimizing downtime and maximizing the return on investment for data center operators.
​
Our approach isn’t just about raw specs. It’s about making sure the hardware runs efficiently in real-world conditions. For example, one of our systems can remove 3000 watts of heat in 90-degree ambient temperatures—something few computers in the industry can claim without special cooling setups.
​
For the Mavericks and Innovators
​
TEP is not for the biggest, most expensive data centers. We’re building for the innovators and mavericks—those who know where the future is headed and want to get there first. Our customers are those who understand that returns on assets matter more than a shiny chassis. They are the ones looking to skate to where the puck is going, not where it is.
​
As we continue to build the future of AI compute, we invite you to follow along and see how TEP is redefining what it means to build for the future. Whether you’re deploying a data center in a field or filling it with the most powerful AI hardware available, we’ve got you covered.
