Schneider Electric sets blueprint for data centre sustainability compliance

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 2 -- Energy and automation digital solutions provider, Schneider Electric has established a clear framework for how data centres can achieve a holistic environmental sustainability approach.

The blueprint recommended data centre operators with five-steps for sustainability: set a bold actionable strategy, implement efficient data centre designs, drive efficiency in operations, buy renewable energy, and decarbonise supply chains.

“In the long run, data centre operators in Malaysia are advised to form strategic partnerships with providers, lawmakers, and the government to work towards a sustainable ecosystem.

“Data centre operators should not be scared off by changing government regulations, instead, they should use them as an opportunity to embrace a greener future and push the boundaries of their sustainability commitments,” the company said in a statement today.

Under the blueprint, Schneider Electric said the usage of a data-driven consultation approach would help data centre operators to create an actionable strategy and reach their climate and sustainability ambitions.

Operators are also recommended to leverage on software and digital services to enable remote monitoring capabilities.

“Optimise the lifespan and efficiency of your systems by defining a clear strategy for maintenance and modernisation to optimise the lifespan inclusive of recycling services for end of life products to ensure circular economy best practices,” it said.

Additionally, operators must also evaluate their Scope 3 footprint (all indirect emissions from activities of the organisation), identify and execute strategies to meet decarbonisation objectives, utilise digital performance tracking and reporting for their decarbonisation programme.
