Our focus on 100% renewable energy
Renewable energy is at the forefront of our business model and sets us apart in the industry.
Our sites are powered by 100% renewable energy, currently ~97% sourced from clean or renewable sources as reported by BC Hydro (primarily from hydroelectricity) and ~3% sourced from the purchase of RECs.
Our locations
We target development in regions where we can access abundant and/or under-utilised renewable energy. In the case of our flagship data center operation in British Columbia, Canada, this is hydroelectricity.
Supporting electricity networks
Our infrastructure provides important services to the electricity networks where we operate. Our data centers can offer dynamic load management that can ramp down electricity usage when demand is high or when renewable energy sources are producing electricity at low volumes.
We can then ramp up electricity usage when demand is low or when renewable energy sources are producing electricity at high volumes that may otherwise be wasted.
This supports the ongoing global transition to renewables, which is often intermittent generation that requires flexible loads.
