KUALA LUMPUR, 15 December 2021 – Schneider Electric™, the leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, and the world’s most sustainable corporation 2021 as ranked by Corporate Knights, today released a comprehensive novel framework for environmentally sustainable data centres. The industry-first framework proposes five areas of environmental impact inclusive of key metrics for data centre operators in various stages of their sustainability journeys. By leveraging the framework, operators can mitigate the impact data centres have on the environment.
Data centres are the backbone of today’s digital world. They are also responsible for up to two per cent of the world’s carbon emissions, equivalent to that of the airline industry. To contend with an increase in digital bandwidth and IT-sector electricity demand, the industry demands a holistic and standardised approach to environmental sustainability.
