Decarbonization-as-a-Service Platform Empowers Cloud Service Providers to Manage Carbon Intensity and Meet Growing Demand for AI and Cloud Services
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., and HOUSTON, Sept. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Context Labs, a leader in carbon performance solutions, today highlighted the extension of its Decarbonization-as-a-Service (DaaS™) platform in optimizing sustainability for data centers. Leveraging its proven capabilities to quantify and prove climate performance, the DaaS™ platform empowers Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and data center operators to measure carbon intensity and establish it as a key operating condition. Building on Context Labs' established success in driving climate-positive outcomes across industries, this solution aims to improve carbon management in the face of growing demand for AI and Cloud services. DaaS™-for-Data-Centers is commercially available for enterprise customers.
With data center demand projected to double by 2030, managing these facilities' energy needs and climate impacts will be critical to the execution of that growth. Moreover, carbon claims generally are under intense scrutiny due to the lack of empirical rigor, and transparency, leading to doubts about their accuracy. This lack of veracity undermines trust and hampers efforts to provide reliable data on emissions reduction. Without reliable data, companies struggle to prove their climate performance.
"As the demand for data centers continues to surge, driven by cloud migration and AI services, our DaaS solution empowers Cloud Service Providers to meet this growing need while demonstrating verifiable carbon intensity performance that stakeholders and regulators can trust," said Dan Harple, founder and CEO of Context Labs. "By turning carbon management in AI-driven data centers into a competitive advantage, we're enabling CSPs to not only address their environmental impact but also create new value in an increasingly climate-conscious market."
By implementing DaaS for Data Centers, CSPs can transform AI-infrastructure carbon management into a key differentiator and a center for value creation. The solution enables organizations to demonstrate trusted climate performance to markets and regulators, to manage carbon costs more effectively and meet or accelerate decarbonization goals.
Key Benefits of Decarbonization-as-a-Service (DaaS™) for Data Centers include:
