In the quest for fossil-free living, data center providers have increasingly made 100% renewable declarations and innovated with clean energy initiatives. In 2019, Vattenfall and Microsoft piloted the first 24/7 matching solution, providing transparency and near-real-time metering of energy consumption. Now, Conapto are the next to implement the technology. As the understanding of energy use in our data centers becomes greater, can widespread deployment accelerate the technology development required to fight climate change?

This case study will look at the past, present and future of 24/7 energy matching, providing unparalleled insight into the operation and maturation of this key technology.
