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.

To address climate change, countries around the world have set a goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. This presents a challenge for the IT industry, because with the dizzying progress of the information society, power consumption of data centers is expected to increase around 850 times by 2050. As a result of these targets, the index of CO2 emission has begun to be adopted as an evaluation point of IT systems.

Executives face more pressure than ever to accelerate their journey to carbon neutrality. As organizations commit to reducing their environmental impact, investors, consumers, governments, and regulatory agencies expect transparency and measurable results as it relates to sustainability. Executing on strategies for environmental sustainability often includes a mix of approaches. IT has the opportunity to reduce impact immediately through optimization of cloud and data center resource consumption and minimize it continuously. Prioritizing sustainable resource consumption offers quick wins that last, as you also initiate longer-term investments in renewable energy, more efficient hardware, and the like.

The international type 1 ecolabelling schemes associated with the entire lifecycle of products and services had environmental and health attributes and has a significant role in mitigating climate change. Standards and criteria developed for ecolabels assist in setting the bar for manufactured products and services to limit greenhouse gas emissions and reduce climate change impacts. Climate change represents a continuing threat to humanity and the natural world. The current effects of anthropogenic climate change are far-reaching, from its effects on causing extreme weather to its impacts on natural ecosystems and human society

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

transmission lines to consumers. This electricity is usually fuelled by coal, gas or nuclear sources. However, the traditional power generation model is being put under more and more pressure, and in the interim,consumers are left exposed to power fluctuations, blackouts and more frequent critical infrastructure.
