How Google plans to use 100% carbon-free energy in its data centers by 2030
Summary
This second stage represents an improvement, but still means that sometimes Google operates with power from sources that emit carbon dioxide. Google also uses a machine learning program developed by DeepMind, the tech giants artificial intelligence arm, to predict the most efficient time to run the heat pumps to cool down its data centers. The more daunting challenge: Cleaning the global grid Energy efficiency is only part of the sustainability puzzle for Googles data centers. How do we build system level changes to really drive the transformation that has to happen on the grid so that then we can really achieve a goal of 24-7. For example, Google has learned how to deploy wind and solar at scale, and how to work with governments to develop public policy.
