Keynote 3: Data Center Efficiency – Eric Dahlen, Intel

Data Center (DC) energy growth accelerated by AI proliferation and generative AI evolution is catalyzing demand for disclosure and improvement of DC energy efficiency and sustainability. 

The recently adopted Delegated Act to the EU Energy Efficiency Directive is the start of an expected wave of regulations intended to improve sustainability. 

This talk ties together ongoing efforts across the Climate Neutral Data Centre Pact (CNDCP), the Green Grid, Open Compute Project® (OCP), and iMasons to facilitate and harmonize credible metrics to help meet these demands.
