Mission critical power systems, such as diesel generators, are essential in preventing critical risks in infrastructure and avoiding damaging power outages in places such as hospitals and airports. But, continued efforts must be made to reduce the environmental impact of such equipment.
Data centers can be a vital partner in the energy transition — creating new possibilities for green data centers and a green grid — through the process of embracing digital change to deliver new and better services.
Hear what Zachary Smith, head of edge infrastructure at Equinix and president of the board of directors at Open19 Foundation, thinks about data center sustainability.

The study suggests the advantages of improved thermal management, reduced vibration, and equalized temperature across the JBOD, which leads directly to lower failure rates and costs for data center operators.
Technology is supposed to make the world a better place, not end it. Instead of focusing all of our energy on finding ways to get around the sustainability issue with more efficient cooling and IT equipment, let's focus on the issue: It's us.
The companies offer solutions for high-power data center applications

Rapidly escalating chip power levels require data centers to adopt liquid cooling approaches to remain energy efficient and support required performance levels.
Lithium-ion batteries typically last eight to10 years — roughly the life span of the UPS itself —and can run at high temperatures, reducing the expenses and energy required for rack cooling.
