Uptime Intelligence is inviting interested parties to collaborate on an initiative to improve data sharing between co-hosting / colocation companies and IT operators in order to comply with regulations and meet sustainability goals.
The final EED delegated regulation was published on March 14, 2024. Data center operators have until September 15, 2024, to report the required information and key performance indicators to the EU database on data centres.
A lack of clarity surrounds the EED reporting timeline for data center operators. The directive mandates the public reporting of 14 items by May 15, 2024, but member states have yet to publish their reporting requirements.
Industry stakeholders recognize that to truly understand IT infrastructure efficiency, data center operators need to report a facility work per unit of energy metric. Most operators are, however, unprepared to calculate this metric.
The US Energy Information Administration has obtained an order requiring cryptocurrency mining operations to report their energy use. It is likely that traditional data centers will also be required to report energy consumption in 2024.
The arrival of regulatorily mandated, climate-related financial disclosure and operational information and key performance indicators reporting for IT operations in 2024 and beyond requires the Digital Infrastructure industry to reimagine its…
New EU legislation will raise recycling and reporting standards for batteries, regardless of chemistries. Although motivated by battery use in electric vehicles, the regulations also place obligations on data center operators.
The EU Code of Conduct on Data Centre Energy Efficiency started out as a voluntary initiative but is increasingly being applied as a standard. This report describes the code's technical contents and assessment process.
Germany's Energy Efficiency Act makes a PUE of 1.2 mandatory for all new data centers starting in 2026. This has reignited a debate: can a data center be both highly available and highly efficient?
Most of Europe's Energy Efficient Directive (EED) requirements are set, but key issues remain. The draft EED delegated act, the last step to finalizing information and key performance indicators, is released for comments and revision.
Data center and IT managers face growing demand to publish comprehensive carbon inventory reports. But estimates for the carbon content embedded in IT equipment have questionable accuracy and usefulness in informing decisions.
This webinar explores the data management process improvements necessary to track and report work per energy performance to meet customer expectations and regulatory mandates.
This session evaluates the methodologies to account for emissions from IT operations in cloud and colocation facilities and embedded carbon in IT equipment purchases, and discusses their management as part of a net zero program.
Over the next decade, digital infrastructure operations will need to comply with an emerging set of regulatory requirements. Managers can smooth the path to compliance by focusing on business processes and data collection.
Regulatory concerns over security, resiliency and energy use have led to a wave of new and updated requirements for data centers. Organizations are beginning to invest more to achieve compliance.
