The results of modeling of the low-potential heat utilization system of data processing centers for the needs of low-temperature heat supply are presented. A multilevel model has been built for calculating energy, exergetic and environmental indicators. A comparative analysis with existing analogues has been carried out. Using the example of a 1 MW data processing center, it is shown that the implementation of the system allows to utilize up to 1.2 MW of thermal power, reduce CO2 emissions by 532 tons per year and ensure a payback period of 6.5 years. The prospects of applying the technology in Russian conditions, taking into account the localization of large data centers, are considered.
