Travis Ramsey

Hello, I'm Travis Ramsey.
I build climate risk systems for data centers.

I integrate climate data from First Street, Jupiter Intelligence, and Moody's RMS with data center portfolios—modeling extreme heat, water scarcity, and power grid vulnerability to inform site selection, capital planning, and operational resilience.

What I Build

Data center operators face mounting climate challenges—extreme heat driving cooling costs, water scarcity threatening operations, and power grid vulnerability from weather events. I build the technical infrastructure that turns climate risk data into operational intelligence.

Portfolio Climate Risk Assessment

Integrate climate hazard data with your existing facilities to quantify exposure and financial impact. Assess extreme heat, water availability, flooding, wildfire, and power grid vulnerability across your entire portfolio to prioritize hardening investments and inform insurance decisions.

  • Facility-level climate risk scoring
  • Extreme heat and cooling cost projections
  • Water scarcity and availability modeling
  • Power grid vulnerability assessment
  • Scenario analysis (2°C, 3°C, 4°C warming)

Site Selection & Development Planning

Evaluate potential locations for new data centers using 30-year climate projections. Model temperature trends, water availability, grid reliability, and natural hazard exposure to inform multi-billion dollar site commitments and reduce long-term operational risk.

  • Location climate risk analysis
  • Long-term temperature and cooling cost projections
  • Water resource availability forecasting
  • Power grid reliability assessment
  • Comparative site risk scoring

Capital Planning & Operational Optimization

Build decision support systems that integrate climate risk into capital allocation and operational planning. Determine which facilities need water recycling systems, additional backup power, or flood protection—with ROI analysis for each resilience investment.

  • Resilience investment prioritization
  • Cooling system optimization modeling
  • Water usage and efficiency analysis
  • Backup power adequacy assessment
  • Climate-adjusted CapEx planning

Climate-Driven Operational Intelligence

Connect external climate conditions to your operational decisions. While your DCIM and BMS monitor internal systems, I integrate external climate risk data—heat waves, water supply stress, grid instability, wildfire smoke—enabling proactive operational responses before climate events impact uptime.

  • Multi-day extreme heat forecasts → Cooling optimization
  • Regional water stress alerts → Conservation protocols
  • Power grid vulnerability predictions → Generator readiness
  • Wildfire smoke tracking → Air handling adjustments
  • Climate event early warning → Preventive actions

Why Data Center Operators Hire Me

I Build Working Systems, Not Reports

Most consultants deliver one-time risk assessments. I build integrated systems that continuously monitor climate risk and update your planning models—operational intelligence, not static PowerPoint.

20 Years Building Critical Infrastructure Systems

I've delivered 900+ enterprise system implementations across mission-critical industries. I understand uptime requirements, operational complexity, and how to integrate climate data without disrupting existing workflows.

Technical + Climate Risk Expertise

I combine deep systems architecture experience with climate risk domain knowledge—LEED certified, Sustainability Excellence Associate (SEA), and Salesforce Net Zero Cloud accredited. I speak both data center operations and climate science.

Independent—No Big 4 Overhead

You work directly with me, not a junior team. You get senior-level expertise and custom architecture without the $2M Big 4 price tag. Fast, focused, and cost-effective for strategic infrastructure decisions.
