Data centre sustainability faces a credibility gap, with self-reported metrics and marketing claims undermining trust as regulations tighten and stakeholders demand proof. This session introduces SDEA, a non-profit, open framework for independently verified datacenter sustainability, covering facility, IT, water, and carbon efficiency.

 

Learn why leading operators are choosing verified certification over greenwashing, and how SDEA’s global ecosystem of operators, auditors, technology partners, and policymakers enables credible, measurable sustainability at scale. Attendees will gain clarity on the value of independent verification and the multiple pathways for engaging with an open, industry-led platform.
