Includes best practices for reduction

As data centers transition to renewable energy, indirect emissions from assets within their value chain, (scope 3 emissions) become the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. Yet scope 3 emissions are still the least reported and understood.

Just how large are scope 3 emissions? Our white paper models the answer with a hypothetical data center, identifying the largest emission sources .

The paper includes a lifecycle carbon calculator that can be used to estimate your data center’s emissions, allowing you to drill down into IT and physical infrastructure attributes as well as lifecycle stage to identify areas of priority.

Finally, the paper includes recommended actions to reduce scope 3 emissions throughout their value chain .
