EvoSwitch (www.evoswitch.com), the Amsterdam data center with CO2-neutral operations, in collaboration with the Bolster Group management consulting firm wants to inspire its clients to design their data infrastructures as environmentally friendly as possible.
“The energy-efficient environment of EvoSwitch gives clients the freedom to make their own choices with regard to purchasing equipment and designing datacenter solutions,” said Eric Boonstra, managing director of EvoSwitch. “But we like to see clients follow our example of deploying green technologies, because only then will you utilize the full advantage of the cost-effective, energy-efficient framework that we have created. Clients locating their data infrastructure at EvoSwitch are able to take advantage of the most technically advanced, secure, environmentally friendly datacenter in the world.”
EvoSwitch delivers the energy-efficient “green” framework within which clients can design their own green data infrastructures. The data center is approximately 50 percent more energy-efficient than traditional data centers, uses green power and invests in CO2-compensation projects worldwide in collaboration with the Climate Neutral Group.
The company says the seminar with Robert Swan fits within EvoSwitch’s overall program to inspire its clients to strive for an energy-efficient approach. “Additional methods to achieve this include measuring energy use by the rack,” says Stijn Grove, sales manager of EvoSwitch. “We also have a client portal to give them insight into individual energy use and to potentially charge them for what they use to encourage energy conservation. For many companies, this alone is enough of an incentive to take energy-efficiency measures. Many data centers charge fees that include power and therefore do not visualize individual energy use.”
