The worlds first CO2 positive data center
EcoDataCenter launched the world's first carbon dioxide positive data center in 2018 and has a wide range of services that combine security and flexibility with a high level of sustainability from several aspects. The facility in Falun is built entirely out of wood and powered 100% by renewable energy sources. The surplus heat generated by the data center is utilized by municipally owned Falu Energi & Vatten, either directly for heating or as an important ingredient in the manufacturing of biofuel. This makes it a unique solution that truly ensures the data center's sustainable standards. In addition to this, the facility has an extremely high level of physical and technical safety.
Sustainable IT: not just good for the environment, but good for business
The topic of Sustainable IT has been held back and downgraded on the agenda of sustainability work for a long time, despite the fact that it has had a major impact on the overall carbon footprint of companies. Now demands are increasing on companies to create a sustainable infrastructure, where IT plays an important part.
