A data centre in Swindon has become
one of the first in the UK to be fully carbon neutral.
Carbon-Z management has made eco-friendly changes to the
site and its work practices, including the submersion of all hardware
components in cooling liquid, sourcing electricity from green energy providers, and is planning to
install solar panels on the roof.
The company used to be known as SilverEdge and rebranded to reflect its focus on cutting carbon emissions. It now hopes to inspire a wider shift towards sustainability within the data centre industry, which accounts for more greenhouse gas emissions annually than commercial flights.
