“As leaders, it is our responsibility to actively pursue tangible solutions that will further pave the way for a more sustainable future within the data centre industry” said Marek Sacha, CEO of BuildingMinds. “Our joint white paper underlines our commitment to pioneering innovative sustainable solutions in the data centre industry. We are witnessing significant growth in the number of internet users, accompanied by a 25 percent increase in internet traffic. Thanks to advancements in energy efficiency, the energy consumption of data centers and transmission networks has greatly decreased, accounting for only 1-1.5 percent of global energy usage. Advancements in AI will lead to accelerated data centre growth, demanding for an even greater focus on sustainability.”
IQ-EQ executive Tamas Mark, Global Head of Real Estate Assets, added that the increasing demand for sustainable data centres requires fund managers to rethink how their middle- and back-office operations support ESG objectives.
