Fueled by the enormous demand for digital services, the data centres are at the forefront of the global digital economy, experiencing unprecedented growth and transformation. As of August 2024, there are over 7,000 data centres worldwide, roughly double the amount in 2015. The number is expected to rise even further due to the proliferation of digital services, the expansion of cloud computing, and the growing reliance on data-driven technologies like AI. As reported in 2023 by the International Energy Agency (IEA), global data centres consume approximately 460 TWh of electricity annually, surpassing the total yearly electricity production of countries like Italy or Australia.<\/strong> This is equivalent to approximately 6% of the global electricity demand. The IEA projected that data centers’ power use will increase to 1,050 TWh  in 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this ongoing expansion, decarbonization emerges as an urgent focus due to the industry\u2019s significant electricity use, prompting a shift towards renewable energy sources to reduce its energy consumption and carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data Center Hubs around the World<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Driven by advancements in cloud computing<\/a>, artificial intelligence, big data, and IoT, the data center industry will continue to boom, requiring robust IT infrastructure to manage the enormous data volumes and computing requirements. The United States is currently the largest data center market with more than 2300 facilities, representing 33% of the global share (IEA)<\/strong>, with Northern Virginia, Dallas and Silicon Valley identified as its main hubs by Visual Capitalist.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Statista, The Asia Pacific region follows, counting over 1700 facilities in 2024, with China leading the market with ~450 data centers. Germany and the UK account for ~30% of the European population (Statista), with the majority of data centers located in the financial centers of Frankfurt, London, Amsterdam, Paris, and Dublin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the European Union (EU), data center electricity consumption was estimated at slightly below 100 TWh in 2022, almost 4% of total EU electricity demand.<\/strong> With a significant number of additional data centres planned, and new deployments that can be expected to be realized over the coming years, the electricity consumption in the data centre sector in the EU is forecasted to reach almost 150 TWh by 2026 (IEA). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

US data center electricity consumption is expected to grow rapidly in the coming years, increasing from around 200 TWh in 2022 (~4% of US electricity demand), to almost 260 TWh in 2026 to account for 6% of total electricity demand (IEA).<\/strong> Growth will be driven by increased adoption of 5G networks and cloud-based services, and competitive state tax incentives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Governmental Incentives around the World<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Companies often cite increasing costs as a barrier to addressing sustainability and decarbonization. To foster growth in the data center sector, governments worldwide are offering incentives\u2014including tax breaks, reduced power costs, and grants\u2014aiming to make their regions attractive for data center investments. <\/strong>US (e.g., federal tax incentives through the Inflation Reduction Act), Germany (e.g., grants from the Energy and Climate Fund to support energy-efficient data centers) and Ireland (e.g.,0% VAT rate on data center electricity usage) have emerged as preferred locations, thanks to their strategic initiatives to draw in developers with the promise of economic and infrastructural benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mandatory Disclosure in the EU<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The data center sector\u2019s substantial electricity demand cannot be ignored. As early as 2020, the European Commission highlighted the need for highly energy-efficient and sustainable data centers in its digital strategy report, \u2018Shapin<\/a>g<\/a> Europe’s digital future<\/a>\u2019.\u00a0 The EU\u2019s Energy Efficiency Directive <\/strong>(EED),<\/strong><\/a> a comprehensive legislative framework aimed at reducing energy consumption and promoting energy efficiency across various sectors in the EU, highlights the efforts needed in data centers in its 2022 recast<\/strong>. EU member states have two years to transpose most of the various elements of the directive into domestic law.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the revised Directive (EU) 2023\/1791, the EED significantly raises the EU energy efficiency target, making it binding for EU member states to collectively ensure an additional 11.7% reduction in energy consumption by 2030, compared to the projections of the EU reference scenario 2020. The revised EED also introduces a new obligation to monitor and report on the energy performance of data centers. Owners and operators of data centers with a power demand for the installed information technology of at least 500kW must publicly report on certain sustainability information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The specific information and key performance indicators that data center operators need to disclose and the deadline by which this must be done are laid out in the EU Delegated Regulation for Data Centers 2024\/1364, which was adopted by the EU Commission in March 2024 and entered into force in June 2024. The data to be disclosed includes energy consumption, temperature set points, waste heat utilization, water usage, and their use of renewable energy (split by on-site generation, PPA, and Guarantees of Origin).<\/strong> The information will be made public through a European database and used by the EU Commission to calculate performance indicators\u2014such as Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), Water Usage Effectiveness (WUE), Energy Re-use Factor (ERF) and Renewable Energy Factor (REF). Regarding the measurement of renewable energy usage, data center operators will have to disclose how much comes from Guarantees of Origin (GOs), Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) and on-site generation (Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024\/1364, 14 March 2024). Moreover, data centers with a total rated power exceeding 1 MW must use their waste heat for heating purposes or other heat recovery applications\u2014unless proven to be technically or economically unfeasible, with the purpose of reducing the amount of energy supplied from fossil fuels (Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023\/1791).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The revised EED and the Commission delegated act apply to all companies, including foreign ones, operating data centers within the EU.<\/strong> They come in addition to general energy efficiency measures aimed at reducing the overall energy consumption of data centers\u2014such as optimizing cooling systems or using more energy-efficient equipment. The EU EED imposes minimum requirements to be transposed into member states\u2019 national law, with some countries going beyond these. For instance, Germany has already transposed the directive, implementing even more stringent measures to promote sustainability and energy efficiency across industries, including data centers.<\/strong> As this trend expands globally, other regions, including the U.S. and APAC, are likely to adopt similar regulatory frameworks. In APAC, Singapore is already taking steps with voluntary initiatives like the SS 546 Green Data Center Standard, which defines performance metrics for energy efficiency and provides a standardized approach for tracking improvements. Such developments indicate a growing global momentum toward stricter regulations for data centers, signaling that other countries may follow suit with mandatory requirements to improve sustainability in this sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
