Data centers continue to demand more energy to meet the needs of the rapidly growing industry, but as the emphasis on renewables continues to heighten, it is critical for industry leaders to adjust their operations to ensure they can transition to a carbon neutral economy, but without compromising the efficiency or cost of their existing operations. During this discussion we ask ‘how can this be achieved?’.

This session will provide insight into the current state of affairs, and examine how businesses are balancing sustainability initiatives alongside cost pressures. A forward looking stance will be taken to examine how data center leaders can prepare for market shocks and varying cost requirements, and how they can position their businesses to implement future technological changes. To bring this session to life, hyperscale use cases will be shared, and best practices for future proofing businesses will be examined to allow attendees to learn from previous successes.
