Mr. Lars Schedin, CEO of EcoDataCenter, said, “The need for data centers around the world is increasing, as more companies see the advantages of working with external data center facilities. Better design, higher uptime performance, lower environmental impact and significantly lower total operational costs for the company all contribute to this development. But this development means an increased need for energy, which affects the environment. EcoDataCenter’s business is based on completely renewable energy, integrated into an already existing energy system, which means we can actually reduce the CO2 footprint in our ecosystem. EcoDataCenter provides the highest uptime performance, highest physical security, greenest solution throughout the process that all contribute to the lowest operational costs.”
