New PDUs from Legrand add remote wireless monitoring to mainstream PDUs, while Legrand’s Linkeo rear door heat exchangers are the next step in sustainable data center cooling

PEM fuel cells were pioneered in the 1960s by NASA. Now, suggests Nedstack’s Jakob Bruinsma, they’re on the cusp of the big-time

The tipping point for liquid cooling has arrived, with a few choices on technology, so which direction should data center operators take?

Fossil fuels are involved in almost every aspect of human activity and production. So, a roadmap to net-zero will need the help of specialists who know how to get there

Demonstrating that a particular material is better for the environment than another might be hard, but new tools have been released proving the environmental advantages of plastic piping over metal

The data center sector is one of the most demanding in the world. Cummins’ Rich Scroggins tells DCD how data center operators are leading the way towards sustainability and decarbonization

Decarbonization and Net Zero are journeys, not projects. AVK’s Ben Pritchard maps out the way, calling at HVO, on-site generation and microgrids

For data center piping solutions, plastic isn’t just the most sustainable choice, it also means less maintenance and greater reliability, GF Piping System’s Benjamin Sheppard tells DCD

Sustainability is about way more than just installing LED lights in the foyer. It starts before you’ve even designed that new data center – and extends far beyond environmental responsibility

Most applications can be hosted out of any data center, anywhere in the world. So why not choose data centers in the most sustainable locations offering stable power prices?

Data centers are made from concrete, cement, steel and glass, and consume vast amounts of power. So how can operators genuinely become “sustainable”, let alone achieve net-zero?

Norway’s hydro-power can provide renewable energy to data centers across Europe. Or, better still, data centers can come to Norway to take advantage of competitively priced renewable electricity all-year round

Mineral oils used in first generation immersion cooling can discolor, develop odors and cause capacitors to swell. But there are better coolants guaranteed to remain stable for 15+ years

With GRC’s ‘try before you buy’ program, you can verify immersion cooling’s performance before taking the plunge

Data centers are prodigious users of water, but attempts to reduce on-site water usage often just shifts water usage upstream to power generation, argues Excool’s Jon Pettitt

Think it won’t happen for another decade? Think again: data center regulations could be coming in just a year or two, says Node Pole’s Christoffer Svanberg

Net-zero carbon emission promises will not be easy to keep unless data center operators radically rethink their cooling, warns Vertiv’s Nigel Gore

Data centers have been getting ever-more efficient for more than two decades, but there is still much to do, say Niall Killeen, Harry Benson and Nick Armstrong from CAI

DCD>Keeping IT Cool panel session identifies the main ways data centers can make the most of heat re-use

Gas is quieter and cleaner than diesel, but gas backup generators can be made even quieter and cleaner with silencers, catalytic converters and other technology, says Aprovis´s Manuel Scherb

Single-use plastics have been criticised for being environmentally harmful, but high-tech, long-lasting plastic technology in piping can enable energy efficient liquid cooling and much, much more

THG is the company behind scores of online brands – including IWOOT – and needed state-of-the-art storage to support its multi-brand ecommerce platform

Net-zero carbon emissions and other environmental considerations will out-rank price and even security in the future, suggests Bjerke

Microsoft’s Brian Marrs outlines Microsoft’s carbon emissions strategy that goes beyond net-zero

Genuine sustainability requires data centers to focus on power-efficient hardware as much as big renewable power contracts, argues SoftIron’s Andrew Moloney
