With the continued expansion of the data center industry, energy consumption is expected to increase substantially, even if significant energy conservation measures are taken. Energy consumption is also expected to increase due to the adoption of high-density services, which due to high levels of energy consumption and heat generation require more power for cooling. The increase in energy consumption is not only a concern for the reduction of carbon emissions but also for the cost of operations for the developers and suppliers.
According to the Office of the Government Chief Information Office (OGCIO), various industry stakeholders, including governments, industry bodies, and technology vendors, are actively collaborating to develop and promote best practices and technologies for energy-efficient data centers. In Hong Kong, the government has set up the Energy Efficiency Office to promote energy conservation, with measures like the Building Energy Efficiency Ordinance (BEEO) and the Fresh Water Cooling Towers Scheme aimed at enhancing energy efficiency in data centers.
