How critical is uptime considering you provide enterprises , government agencies and managed service providers a place to safely store their mission-critical data ?
Ensuring uptime is crucial to our operations and our clients need our data centre to be available all year round . They choose us for our exceptional technical setup and robust power support systems that ensure redundancy , in the unlikely event of a component failure . To demonstrate our commitment to high uptime , in December 2022 we obtained an EN 50600 certification , a Europeanwide transnational standard established in 2012 for building new data centres . The EN 50600 validates our uninterrupted service , environmental control , telecommunications infrastructure , PUE and Renewable Energy Factor .
Where are you on your path to achieving net zero carbon by 2050 and what ’ s your strategy for success ?
Currently , GDC procures 100 % certified renewable energy from Nord Pool . By sourcing renewable energy , GDC is significantly reducing its reliance on fossil fuels within its energy consumption . Furthermore , we are limiting our use of fossil fuels to emergency backup diesel generators , which undergo regular testing and are hardly used .
By adopting a comprehensive approach that combines renewable energy procurement , efficient energy management and a commitment to reducing fossil fuel use where possible , GDC is on the path towards achieving our emissions goals . The company ' s strategy for success includes ongoing innovation , collaboration with industry partners and a steadfast commitment to sustainability in the data centre industry .
How do you deliver on efficiency and sustainability goals through heat reuse ? our energy consumption and our reliance on external heating .
GDC is currently exploring partnerships with nearby residential and industrial areas to utilise excess heat , promoting local sustainability and reducing energy waste .
By prioritising heat reuse , we ’ re demonstrating and extending our commitment to efficiency and sustainability . These commitments extend beyond our business operations as we seek opportunities to enhance sustainability by transporting excess heat for the benefit of local communities .
