Drivers
4
• Global warming – how to reduce the
environmental impact of energy production
• Digitalization of the world – fast growth of
datacenter capacity globally. The dc
industry is/will be a significant energy user.
Global Data Center IP Traffic Growth, Source: Cisco
Global Land-Ocean temperature index, Source: NASA/GISS
Global warming and growing environmental awareness and energy regulation
are driving the change.

Green data center concepts
5
Smart batteries and back-
up units
• Smart
• Participation in reserve
power markets as an
option
Green electricity sourcing
& hedging
• Green electricity sales and
trading
• Electricity price hedging,
setting the electricity price
limit at wanted level
• Solar and wind PPA’s
On-site renewable energy
production
• Tailor made small /
medium scale solar and
wind power solutions
• To cut the power costs and
increase the share of
renewables
Fortum’s green data center concepts to increase data centers' environmental
performance
Heat utilization in district
heating network
• Cool the data center with
heat pumps
• Supply excess heat to the
district heating network

Open district heating network and data center heat utilization and
• Cool the data center with a heat
pump
• Supply excess heat to the district
heating network
• Long term and transparent
contracts, compensation of heat is
network dependent.
• Where: In Fortum’s district
networks in Finland, Sweden, Baltic
countries and Poland.
