Iron Mountain data center industry is known for its high energy consumption. It aims to achieve 24/7 carbon-free energy across all its global operations by 2040.


Key takeaways:

1. The most exciting thing about the project is that Iron Mountain has been able to trace all of its sites across the whole of the county, including both data centres and office facilities.

2. To realize Iron Mountain’s goal, it’s essential to partner with organizations capable of accurately tracking, analyzing, and certifying consumption data and the current energy mix across multiple sites.


Next steps:

1. In the upcoming decade, Iron Mountain and their utility partner, Engie, will work hand in hand.

2. The joint efforts will concentrate on elevating their carbon-free credentials and exploring evolving renewable solutions to reach the goal of being powered by local renewable energy sources at all hours of the day.
