Data Center Operators Are Fighting Against Pollution
Summary
Three tech giants are providing free patents for data center operators to increase the rate at which environment-friendly technologies are adopted. If data centers adopt this new pledge it will assist in removing about half of the CO2 emissions and reductions needed to achieve the Clean Energy Innovation Goal by 2050. Facebook, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Microsoft are offering these royalty-free patents as a donation to carbon change and fighting against pollution. As summer creeps closer, data center operators will have to be more cautious as they face new greenhouse gas bans in regard to cooling systems. By the beginning of 2020, the EU has banned any new production of HFCs and imposed transitional legislation to provide further assistance in reducing these emissions.
