Description

The pace of change and growth in the development of data centres is significant, but how much scope is there to improve their sustainability credentials? 

Operational efficiency and power usage can deliver big wins. But what about material choices? How do good intentions make it to reality? Is there an argument that design for manufacture and assembly (DfMA) could be adopted more widely? 

Putting the sustainability arguments to the test are Angela Vico Correas, director at studioNWA, Roy Andrade, technical director at Sweet Projects, Timo Hendy, technical director at Stantec, and Stephen Meleady, MEP director and sector lead for data centres at Stantec. Hosted by Graham Munday at Stantec.
