Abstract
The growing climate impact of increased Greenhouse Gas Emissions and CO2 levels in Earth's atmosphere highlights the value and importance of technologies that reduce such impact. Electricity generation is a significant contributor to global CO2 emissions, and the datacenter industry is expected to reach anywhere from 3 to 13% of global electricity demand by 2030. We share some conclusions derived from operational data and discuss the key technical challenges that drive carbon-aware designs and their future enhancements.
