  • Environmental awareness: reducing the energy consumption of CERN’s IT infrastructure

    Environmental awareness: reducing the energy consumption of CERN’s IT infrastructure

    Energy consumption related to data processing is one of the main environmental impacts of CERN’s IT infrastructure and activities. Around 75% of the energy used in data centre activities at CERN is for data processing, while the remaining 25% is dedicated to data storage. As shown in this infographic, three main actors could contribute to
