McBride Advances $5 Million for Delaware Innovation and Chemours in the House | 2025-07-18 | 2025 | 2025-07 | Democrat | House | DE | Sarah McBride | M001238 | mcbride.house.gov | mcbride | https://mcbride.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Delaware’s Congresswoman Sarah McBride announced the successful passage of her amendment that secures $5 million aimed at advancing groundbreaking two-phase immersion and liquid cooling technologies developed by The Chemours Company in Delaware. The funding request now advances to the Senate. “This investment means faster, more efficient IT equipment for our country and troops. It means lower costs and less grid strain for our country. And it means good-paying jobs for cutting-edge innovators in Delaware,” said Rep. McBride. “I’m proud to have led this commonsense investment to secure a smarter, more sustainable future—and I look forward to continuing to work alongside my colleagues to get it across the finish line.” Chemours’ two-phase immersion cooling system offers a transformative approach to cooling military and civilian data infrastructure. By submerging hardware in a specialized dielectric fluid, this method reduces water use, cuts cooling energy consumption by up to 90%, and shrinks physical data center footprints by as much as 60%. The $5 million secured by Rep. McBride would support the development of a dedicated testing lab for evaluating next-generation chip performance, long-term reliability of portable military-grade data centers, and adjacent technologies like direct-to-chip cooling and heat recovery systems. “Chemours is proud to call Delaware home, and we’re grateful to Congresswoman McBride for championing this critical investment in next-generation cooling technology for data centers,” said Gerardo Familiar, President of Advanced Performance Materials at Chemours. “This funding will accelerate our ability to deliver innovative, energy-efficient solutions that support American competitiveness and national security, reduce environmental impact, and create good-paying jobs in the First State. We look forward to continuing to demonstrate how American innovation and manufacturing can meet the challenges of tomorrow.” “This is not just about efficiency, it’s about mission readiness,” Rep. McBride told the Rules Committee in written testimony. “American forces rely on secure, rapid, and resilient data processing. By supporting this amendment, we are investing in a future where our IT infrastructure is faster, and more deployable—without sacrificing performance or sustainability.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T14:40:33Z |
