The energy challenges of data centres

Solar panels for data centres in the UK and Ireland

Controlling energy costs with solar and sustainable solutions.

With growing pressure for organisations to reduce their carbon footprint, data centres are facing rising energy costs and an increasing risk of blackouts. The demand for energy is outpacing supply, making it crucial for data centres to explore alternative energy sources.

More and more data centres are turning to sustainable solutions to protect themselves from escalating energy expenses and to meet their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) requirements. These centres are major consumers of global electricity, and consumption is expected to triple in the coming years.

Experts forecast that regulations will become more stringent, requiring data centres to address their carbon emissions more aggressively.

In fact, the European Commission has set a target for data centres to produce 80% of their energy from renewable sources by 2020. Industry leaders like Apple and Google are leading this transition, significantly reducing both their carbon footprints and energy costs.

The energy challenges of data centres

Data centres are responsible for a huge amount of the global electricity usage; with consumption predicted to treble even further in the next years.

Industry professionals have forecasted that regulations will become increasingly demanding for Data centres to address the impact of their carbon emissions.

As a result, the European Commission have responded by requesting data centres to produce 80% of its energy via renewable sources by 2020. Industry leading giants such as Apple and google are front the change and have already made significant towards reducing their carbon footprints as well as significantly reducing their energy costs.
