Big Data, Big Waste?

Resource efficient data management:
Why companies need to act now

Data centres already account for 2% of the global electricity consumption, this number could rise up to 30% by 2038. More and more companies realise that they also have to make a contribution to protect the climate. The storage of unstructured and dark data alone unnecessarily wastes huge amounts of energy.

The latest need for action: the EU wide ESG reporting obligation, which applies from 2023 on for all companies with 250 or more employees.

Did you know that…

21% of German IT decision makers do not know how much data they have stored?
45% of company data is irrelevant and therefore wastes energy and money
The volume of data will grow by 230% by 2025 and accordingly the energy consumption?
Approximately 49,000 companies across Europe with 250 or more employees are now required to file an ESG report?

Companies' opportunity to achieve sustainability goals
