iDT4GDC

Data centres are currently estimated to consume 1.5% of global electricity demand and 1% of global CO2 emissions and are projected to double both figures by 2030. Improving data centre energy use towards climate-neutrality has therefore become an important challenge that is expected to increase in importance as data centre energy needs grow. iDT4GDC aims to develop Artificial Intelligence methods that use digital twin technologies to create an AI platform to digitalise, optimise and automate data centre operations in order to manage and improve data centre energy consumption. iDT4GDC will help data centre operators and customer move towards a sustainable future guided by the five pillars of power, carbon, water, circular economy and governance.
