Hyperscale data centers key to driving energy transition in Asia Pacific and Japan

As corporations and governments pursue the challenge of achieving a low-carbon future in Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ), AirTrunk has released its Powering a Clean Energy Future report that identifies hyperscale data centers as key drivers in APJ’s energy transition to 24/7 clean energy.

The report highlights how a hyperscale data center’s size, electricity demand profile, innovation capabilities and proven experience in procuring renewable energy puts them in a prime position for partnership to accelerate the transition.

Through energy system modelling, the report also determines the most effective technology pathways and costs to reaching 24/7 clean energy, providing holistic analysis of what is required.

Joscha Schmitz, AirTrunk Head of Energy & Climate, said: “24/7 clean energy is crucial to achieving climate targets by fully decarbonising power grids. As the major hyperscale data centre provider in APJ, we released this report with the inte
