Low Latency at the Edge

Modern cities rely on an ever-growing stream of data—from autonomous transport systems to predictive healthcare, from energy balancing to AI-driven logistics. To manage this in real time - latency matters.

Cognicatus’ infrastructure places compute power closer to where data is generated—at the edge of the city grid.

This reduces response times, enabling real-time analytics, instant AI decision-making, and seamless integration with IoT, 5G, and future 6G networks.

Applications range from traffic optimization to emergency response systems, from AI-enhanced energy grids to intelligent water management.

Integrated with District Heating

Unlike conventional data centers that waste enormous amounts of energy as heat, Cognicatus builds circular energy systems. In partnership with Synthesis Analytics AB (see synthesis.se), we have developed an infrastructure model where:

Waste heat from high-density GPUs and accelerators is captured through advanced immersion cooling technologies.

This thermal energy is fed directly into district heating networks, supplying clean, consistent warmth to homes, schools, and businesses.

The result: up to 80–90% of the data center’s energy footprint is recycled, transforming AI infrastructure into a contributor to community resilience rather than a burden.

A Blueprint for Smart, Sustainable Cities

Cognicatus’ vision goes beyond efficiency. Our edge-located, heat-integrated AI infrastructure becomes a backbone for smart city development:

Sustainable Energy Transition: Decarbonizing local heating systems while supporting renewable integration.

Resilient Infrastructure: Ensuring cities have real-time, local AI capacity to handle disruptions.

Economic Development: Providing a platform for innovators, municipalities, and utilities to build new services on top of AI-ready infrastructure.

Global Scalability: From pilot sites in Sweden to global metropolitan areas, the Cognicatus blueprint scales with urban growth and demand.

Cognicatus is not just building smarter infrastructure, we are redefining the relationship between AI and the urban environment. By combining low-latency AI, sustainable energy cycles, and scalable edge architectures, we bring cities closer to being self-learning, energy-positive, and people-centric.
