Data center operators are emerging as leaders in the global drive toward net zero emissions, with many companies setting aggressive targets to mitigate their carbon footprint as early as 2030.
Jenny Gerson, DataBank’s Head of Sustainability, outlines the pathway to achieving net zero across all three scopes of emissions.
“Data center operators are savvy energy purchasers, so they already have a leg up when contracting power, including renewable power.”
