ESG & Reporting – Efficiency-First Approach
Primary Lever: PUE ≤ 1.20
PUE is the most efficient sustainability lever
Achieved via liquid cooling and right-sized power distribution
Client-directed renewable sourcing (RECs/PPAs/hourly-match) with 15-min interval data
Secondary Lever: WUE ≤ 25th Percentile
Water is the new gold
Design first: Warm-water closed-loop DTC to cut evaporative loss.
Target: WUE ≤ 25th-percentile.
Options: Non-potable/recirc sources, on-site treatment, and heat-reuse pathways—drought-resilient by design.
Our efficiency-first approach prioritizes both environmental impact and operating costs, delivering superior performance while maintaining sustainable operations.
