The European Commission is advancing a range of initiatives impacting the data center sector, including the Data Centre Energy Efficiency Package and the Strategic Roadmap on Digitalisation and AI for the Energy Sector, with the ambition of achieving carbon neutral data centers by 2030.

 

This session will explore:

  • Alignment with other EU sustainability, energy and digital policies
  • How the EU can ensure regulatory requirements do not push data center investment outside of Europe
  • What constitutes a realistic PUE and energy reuse target for new data centers delivered from 2026 onwards
