Some data centers consume more energy than a large town or small city. But those towns and cities have time to relax and shut down. While data centers are critical infrastructure, they also run our worlds critical infrastructure – so keeping them online ca be a matter of life and death. Combine this with the continued need for more sustainable operations, renewable energy goals and objectives, and a dramatic increase for data storage services – and you have an interesting challenge. The Data Centers Industry went through a massive growth pattern in the past decade due to cloud computing transformation, hyperscale, 5G networks and other technological and socioeconomic changes. This technological evolution introduced challenges to the Data Centers owners in terms of sustainability, cost effectiveness and reliable operation.

Our findings suggest that emissions are on the way to reach pre-pandemic levels. Of the 25 countries analysed, emissions under current policies have increased from 36.3-36.8 GtCO2e in 2020 to 37.2- 38.1 GtCO2e in 2021; this translates to a rebound of 2.5-3.5% since the COVID-19-induced emissions dip observed in 2020. Recent estimates of global CO2 emissions suggest a rebound of between 4.2% and 6.5% in 2021 (Davis et al., 2022; Jackson et al., 2022)
