Datacenter operator groups pledge to cut water consumption
Water conservation was identified as one of five areas for taking action by the CNDCP and the EC, as cooling technology is now taking on a larger importance owing to the increasing density and power consumption of IT infrastructure, and the continued expansion of datacenters themselves.
To this end, the self-regulatory initiative has proposed a limit of 0.4 liters of water per kilowatt-hour of compute power deployed, which it is claimed will ensure datacenters run by signatories to the pact will rate among the most efficient globally for their use of water.
