At the same time, rising electricity prices are placing a significant burden on Germany as a business location. The impact on future life is a particular focus. As a result, environmentally friendly measures to combat the crisis are becoming increasingly important\u2014above all, the switch to renewable energy. <strong>\u201cOperating data centers requires a high demand for electricity to power the IT infrastructure,\u201d<\/strong> explains Jerome Evans, founder and Managing Director of firstcolo GmbH.   <\/p><p>For more than 20 years, firstcolo has operated data centers and therefore places great importance on the efficiency of the respective areas. <strong>\u201cWe use 100% electricity from renewable energy,\u201d<\/strong> says Evans.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: left;\">He also points to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.it-business.de\/was-ist-ein-pue-wert-a-5901a2c9e3c2f1a02cedd45736fe2813\/\"><strong>PUE value (Power Usage Effectiveness) of 1.25<\/strong>,<\/a> which compares the data center\u2019s total energy consumption with that of the IT infrastructure. In 2020, the average PUE value in Germany was 1.631. \u201cSpecifically, this means that we only require 25% additional energy to operate the necessary data center infrastructure. This can include, for example, emergency power systems or air-conditioning units, which play an essential role in operations.\u201d  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-46274e8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"46274e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Optimized consumption contributes to data center efficiency<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b7ff24e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1b7ff24e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Climate neutrality for data centers by 2030: this is the EU Commission\u2019s demand within the European Green Deal. For green data centers, one possible lever is therefore adjusting energy demand. \u201cThis can be achieved, for example, through air conditioning or cooling of the data center, as these have a major impact on the total electricity consumption of the respective data center,\u201d Evans explains.  <strong> \u201cThat is why we rely on modern cooling concepts with direct or indirect free cooling.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><p>For cooling technology within the data centers, firstcolo relies on <a href=\"https:\/\/firstcolo.blackpeppers.de\/glossar\/kaltgang\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>cold aisle containment<\/strong><\/a> to direct effectively and efficiently cooled air to the respective server systems. \u201cWe ensure that the supply air temperature within the cold aisles of our data centers reaches a value between 21 and 24 degrees,\u201d the expert explains. This ensures the hardware receives sufficient cooling and avoids unnecessary use of cooling capacity that would be required for a lower temperature.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bc2eb6c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"bc2eb6c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Efficient data centers are crucial for sustainable colocation<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7db1005 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7db1005\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>To assess energy consumption and carry out necessary optimizations, the PUE value alone is not sufficient. Instead, it requires a comprehensive view of all aspects of electricity consumption and regular review of all relevant metrics. \u201cData center operators should therefore, in addition to the already high quality requirements, not lose sight of the <strong>focus on <a href=\"https:\/\/firstcolo.blackpeppers.de\/en\/about-us\/sustainability\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sustainability<\/a><\/strong> in the future,\u201d Evans warns. New findings should always be taken into account and adjustments made continuously. \u201cWith this approach, firstcolo aims to guarantee efficient colocation operations while also contributing to the fight against the climate crisis,\u201d the expert concludes.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-57e0aa2 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"57e0aa2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-15fd14f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"15fd14f\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bc6bee6 elementor-author-box--name-yes elementor-author-box--biography-yes elementor-author-box--link-no elementor-widget elementor-widget-author-box\" data-id=\"bc6bee6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"author-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-author-box__name\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRedaktion firstcolo\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-author-box__bio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-18d572e elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-info\" data-id=\"18d572e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-info.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-inline-items elementor-icon-list-items elementor-post-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item elementor-repeater-item-2a1c4d9 elementor-inline-item\" itemprop=\"datePublished\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-calendar\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M12 192h424c6.6 0 12 5.4 12 12v260c0 26.5-21.5 48-48 48H48c-26.5 0-48-21.5-48-48V204c0-6.6 5.4-12 12-12zm436-44v-36c0-26.5-21.5-48-48-48h-48V12c0-6.6-5.4-12-12-12h-40c-6.6 0-12 5.4-12 12v52H160V12c0-6.6-5.4-12-12-12h-40c-6.6 0-12 5.4-12 12v52H48C21.5 64 0 85.5 0 112v36c0 6.6 5.4 12 12 12h424c6.6 0 12-5.4 12-12z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text elementor-post-info__item elementor-post-info__item--type-date\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<time>20.
