Green Colocation: PUE, Renewable Energy, and ESG

Environmental sustainability is becoming increasingly important in data center selection as organizations work to meet ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) commitments and reduce their carbon footprint. This guide explains Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and other efficiency metrics, how to evaluate a provider's environmental credentials, and what questions to ask about renewable energy sourcing. We cover innovative cooling technologies that reduce energy consumption, how providers are achieving carbon neutrality, and the business case for choosing green colocation facilities. Learn about industry initiatives like the Climate Neutral Data Centre Pact, how to calculate your infrastructure's environmental impact, and how to report on sustainability metrics to stakeholders.
