INDUSTRIAL DECARBONISATION
Emphasising that decarbonisation is a key part of atNorth ’ s mission , Erling shares how atNorth can significantly contribute to industrial decarbonisation thanks to the business ’ s sustainable data centre solutions and services . These include :
• Renewable energy use : atNorth ’ s data centres run entirely on renewable energy sources . Because they are located in Nordic countries with abundant lowcarbon and renewable energy , all operations use only renewable energy , reducing overall carbon footprint
• Energy efficient design : The company employs innovative design and operational practices to maximise energy efficiency , with strategic locations chosen to
enable more efficient cooling and state-ofthe-art infrastructure and cooling technologies leveraged to minimise energy consumption
• Heat reuse technology : This further reduces waste and supports circular economy principles as excess heat is captured and recycled for district heating , providing heat and hot water to local communities
• Decarbonisation platform for clients : atNorth provides a pathway to low-carbon IT operations for organisations and helps clients meet their sustainability and ESG targets . For example , one client , Shearwater Geoservices , achieved a 92 % reduction in CO₂ output and an 85 % reduction in costs by moving its computing infrastructure to atNorth ’ s Icelandic data centre
• Industry commitments : atNorth is actively involved in industry-wide sustainability initiatives and is a Member of the iMasons Climate Accord , committed to reducing carbon in digital infrastructure , as well as a Partner in the Climate Neutral Data Center Pact , working towards making Europe climate neutral by 2050 .
By providing these sustainable , energyefficient data centre solutions and subsequent sustainability , atNorth enables businesses across various industries to reduce their carbon footprint while meeting their highperformance computing needs , thus contributing significantly to industrial decarbonisation efforts .
