Massachusetts Green HPC Center

The Massachusetts Green High Performance Computing Center (MGHPCC) is a premier intercollegiate high-performance computing facility, a collaborative venture between Boston University, Harvard, MIT, Northeastern, the University of Massachusetts system, and Yale. Located in Holyoke, MA, it provides advanced computing and storage resources to over 20,000 researchers and educators, enabling millions of virtual experiments monthly across critical fields like climate, energy, medicine, and AI.

Renowned for its environmental leadership, the MGHPCC was the first university research data center to achieve LEED Platinum certification, utilizing 100% carbon-free power from local hydroelectric and solar generation. This commitment to sustainability is matched by its dedication to democratizing access to technology, supporting smaller institutions and companies. The MGHPCC serves as a vital catalyst for the regional innovation ecosystem, fostering collaboration, attracting research grants, and spurring economic growth by supporting a new generation of scientists and engineers.
