NRDC Report, America’s Data Centers Are Wasting Huge Amounts of Energy
NRDC has written an issue brief advising on best practices for reducing emissions from data centers.
LPDD Recommendation: “Private sector participants should commit to the Ceres sustainability road map commitment to improve energy efficiency of operations by at least 50% and reduce electricity demand by at least 15%.”
LPDD Recommendation: “Data centers can improve their efficiency by adopting utilization metrics, rewarding efficient behaviors (perhaps by using green leases between leased data centers and their tenants), and disclosing energy and carbon performance.”
