Green IT: How Duocast contributes to a sustainable digital future

Data centres: the essential backbone of our digital economy. Data centres enable 24/7 connectivity and support the core operations of countless organisations. At the same time, they are among the largest industrial energy consumers today. That’s why it is essential that this infrastructure evolves in step with the transition to a more sustainable energy system. But how do we approach this at Duocast?

Our partner data centres — including NorthC and QTS — meet strict standards in environmental and energy management. They consistently invest in measures such as:

• Procurement of 100% certified green electricity from renewable sources like solar and wind
• Free cooling and optimised climate control systems to reduce energy use
• Transparent reporting on energy consumption and CO₂ emissions
• Reuse of residual heat, for example via district heating
• Smart monitoring and optimisation of energy and airflow
• On-site charging infrastructure for electric vehicles

Certifications and transparency
