Data center operator DEAC is implementing "green business" concept and switched to 100% renewable energy sources
RIGA, Latvia, June 10, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

In May 2021, DEAC has become a green data center operator that uses 100% 
renewable energy from Northern Europe wind farms and has taken part in a global 
plan of economy decarbonisation.

Increasing demand of data center, especially cloud, solutions result in high 
consumption of energy in data centers that has negative impact on climate. As 
electricity from fossil fuels is directly related to carbon emissions, DEAC 
switched to renewable energy to minimize negative impact on the environment.

The problem of global climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions unites 
many countries to achieve a common goal. ICT companies worldwide are developing 
new green technology solutions to become climate and carbon neutral by 2030, 
according to the Paris Agreement.

"We have already improved energy efficiency by upgrading cooling systems, 
adding chillers and creating new cold-hot aisle solution in the server rooms. 
Using 100% renewable energy resources, DEAC, as a socially responsible operator 
of data centers, contributes to environmentally friendly and sustainable 
development of the business", - comments Andris Gailitis, DEAC Chairman of the 
Board.

The "green business" concept and ESG principles implies reducing consumption of 
resources and negative impact on the environment. With the growing demand for 
renewable energy, their cost will decrease in the near future and its stability 
and access contributes to business continuity and development.

For over 20 years, DEAC has been providing the best IT solutions on the market 
for its customers. Green energy is an integral component of advanced 
technologies and a key aspect for the development of a sustainable business. 
Companies can implement their "green business" concept together with the data 
center operator DEAC, choosing it as an ICT service provider.
