DCD Singapore 2020 Virtual-google.jpg

Every year, fast-depleting natural resources are converted into billions of dollars of materials to be consumed by our data centers. Can the challenge of maximizing the life of these scarce materials, reducing carbon emissions produced during conversion, and harnessing the energy embodied within them be solved by introducing a circular economy to every stage of the data center lifecycle?

This session will explore how circular thinking can be applied to the data center industry, and circularity built into electronic technologies. Our field-leading speakers will explain how a sustainable materials passport can help provide a value for recovery and reuse of data center components and materials.

This session took place on September 15, 2020
