By 2025, we will reduce the ecological footprint of our IT infrastructure by 30% through the use of energy-efficient data centres and cloud services.
Use of cloud services: Reduce energy consumption through the use of cloud services with optimised resource utilisation and virtual servers.
Application of available power reduction options by the user: Implement processor downclocking, switch off surplus power supplies, disable backup storage infrastructures (spin down of disks when not in use).
Switch to energy-efficient data centres: Relocate your IT infrastructure to sustainable data centres (e.g. green.ch) that operate with renewable energy and hold ISO certification, such as EnMS.*
Use of modern technology: Consistently employ the latest energy-optimised technologies. Reusing old servers rarely proves cost-effective from an energy perspective.
*ISO 50001: Leading standard for energy management systems.
Optimisation of data storage: Implement green storage solutions to minimise energy consumption and physical hardware usage.
By implementing sustainable IT solutions, companies can achieve their environmental targets while realising economic benefits, meeting regulatory requirements, strengthening their brand and benefiting from technological progress.
