Data centers have a significant role to play in the fight against climate change as a major consumer of power & electricity, but have also achieved major improvements in efficiency over the past ten years. Furthermore, there have never been more opportunities for the data centers to improve circularity and move towards net zero, including heat reuse, contributing green energy to the grid and biodiversity projects. In this episode, we will explore:

• How the sector can move towards a more uniform methodology of measuring the total consumption of data centers
• How operators can become more transparent for better visibility and to compare efforts & best practices
• Whether emerging technology can bring long-lasting change to the environmental impact of data centers
• How this is likely to change in the face of more stringent regulation, and how to more effectively communicate the benefits that data centers can bring
