CPUs and Greenhouse Gases: Why Data Center Processor Selection Matters in Achieving Sustainability Goals

August 23, 2022

CPUs and Greenhouse Gases
Data centers are major consumers of electricity, both for powering servers and keeping them cool.
Despite the progress that large data center operators have made in improving efficiency, power demand
is expected to continue to grow steadily for the foreseeable future. While hyperscale operators have
made great strides in shifting to renewable energy sources, the reality is that fossil fuels generate
60% of U.S. electricity

Examining Supply-Side Options to Achieve 100% Clean Electricity by 2035

whitePaper | August 30, 2022

This study evaluates a variety of scenarios that achieve a 100% clean electricity system (defined as zero net greenhouse gas emissions) in 2035 that could put the United States on a path to economywide net-zero emissions by 2050. These scenarios focus primarily on the supply of clean electricity, including technical requirements, challenges, and benefit and cost implications. The study results highlight multiple pathways to 100% clean electricity in which benefits exceed costs. The study does not comprehensively evaluate all options to achieve 100% clean electricity, and it focuses largely on supply-side options.
