• Project 12 December 2018 Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency The Copenhagen Centre on Energy Efficiency works to engage national and subnational governments to accelerate energy efficiency implementation, in line with global Sustainable energy objectives. Many developing world governments are motivated to act on energy efficiency, therefore the Copenhagen Centre can help with the capacity to realise their energy efficiency ambitions, and to develop projects that would be able to attract investments and generate actual energy savings. With a focus on the…
• 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…
