OpenUK's Patchwork Kilt Data Centre and EV Charging Blueprints
Talkat LF Energy Embedded Summit @ EOSS 2023 · on Friday, 2023-06-30· at 14:50· Conference Hall (Level 4)·
summary
OpenUK publishes two actionable blueprints: Patchwork Kilt maps converting derelict retail and office space into 5G edge data centers, reusing hyperscale hardware and claiming up to 80% GHG reduction and 50–88% embodied carbon savings; the EV Charging blueprint stitches stakeholders around OCPP, charge point operators, grid and policy gaps, documents uptime and land‑grab failure modes, and lists collaborators (Open Compute Project, SDIA, EU bodies). Both live on GitHub and are being made machine‑readable for automated gap and resource tracking.
