Connect | APAC // DCD>Debate: Ambitious targets, shifting regulations – Is the industry making real progress on Net-Zero?

As APAC data centers push towards net-zero, a wave of evolving regulations is reshaping the industry. Countries like Singapore, China, Malaysia, and Australia are setting ambitious targets for energy efficiency, decarbonization, and reporting. But with no unified framework, operators face fragmented policies that complicate compliance and slow progress.

Are these regulations driving meaningful change, or are they creating costly roadblocks? And as demand for data infrastructure skyrockets, can the industry achieve meaningful emissions reductions without compromising growth, speed to market, and cost efficiency? Our experts will discuss.

Held under Chatham House Rule, DCD>Debates are open discussions led by a panel of experts, on the biggest issues to face the industry.
