The facility will be designed according to the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards.
It will be connected to six mega-volt-amps of power. High density power design and efficient heat exchange systems will turn Quebec's cold climate into "free cooling" during two thirds of the year. Large air conditioning units will be used when "free cooling" is unavailable.
TELUS currently operates eight data centers across Canada, each of which is connected to its national Internet protocol (IP) network and serves as a secure platform for providing Managed Information Technology (IT), Unified Communications and Contact Centre Solutions.
Karen Radford, president of TELUS Qu├®bec and TELUS Partner Solutions. "This investment in Quebec will support our clients' growing need for more powerful IT infrastructure while having one of the lowest carbon footprints of all data centers in North America. TELUS is very proud to be leading the way to a healthier and greener future for our team members and our customers in Quebec, and around the world."
