EU policymakers are sharpening their focus on data center energy consumption. In the broader context of volatile wholesale prices, regulatory and investor pressures and grid constraints, green energy can be not only sustainable, but a cost-cutting choice. Currently, the most effective paths to green energy include PPAs/VPPS, energy attribute certificates and electricity self-consumption. In this episode, we’ll compare the regulatory pressures and evolving marketplace dynamics for these green energy options, including:

• Optimizing green energy within hybrid power portfolios
• Blending onsite generation with green energy procurement and targeted certificates
• The optimal regional approach to green power
• Understanding the balance of upfront costs, with long-term business priorities
