- Webinar & E-Learning 11 December 2018 Global Growth Potential of Energy Efficient Data Centres (Webinar) - 11.12.2018 Data centres are among the most complex and energy-demanding facilities in the world. Currently, the world's data centres consumed 3% of global electricity with a growth project to 20% by 2025. These power hungry data centres are now responsible for 2% of global CO2 emissions, a similar share of the entire aviation industry. This value potentially will escalate to 14% by 2040. The economic and environmental ramifications of continued data centre growth provide the rationale for exploring more…
