Carbon-aware IT solutions:
Choosing the right grid signals

Learn how to leverage granular grid signals to measure and reduce IT infrastructure emissions with our guide.

The foundation for green IT

Sustainability in IT is no longer a "nice-to-have" — with its rising electricity consumption and in the face of climate change, it is an operational necessity and a growing customer demand. Real-time grid signals are key to transforming IT operations, ensuring compliance with evolving regulations, and reducing IT-related carbon footprints.

Without accurate data on electricity grid conditions, it is impossible to effectively measure and optimize the carbon footprint of IT operations, including data center usage and cloud computing workloads. This guide explores how to leverage the right grid signals for your specific needs — whether for compliance-driven sustainability efforts or proactive emission reductions to meet net-zero targets.

Inside this guide:
An overview the different available electricity grid signals
Key considerations for selecting grid signals, including granularity, flow-tracing and compliance
Practical applications of grid signals for sustainable IT, such as emissions reporting, load shifting, and integration into IT products — with real client cases
