Green energy research could enhance data centre sustainability

Capitaland is working with energy providers to develop green solutions for its power-hungry data centre.

Capitaland, SP Group and Sembcorp Industries have signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly study the use of integrated energy solutions to power data centres, all as part of SP’s Energy Partnership Programme.

The study will focus on developing solutions to power Capitaland’s data centre, 9 Tang Seng Drive.

SP will lend its technical expertise in smart energy solutions, with research and testing undertaken at SP’s Concept Lab.

Sembcorp will be in charge of providing urban sustainability solutions to energy-intensive businesses, customised combinations of solar energy, energy storage, sustainable energy retail, and other innovative energy solutions.

The study also aims to determine how green hydrogen fuel cell technologies can be most efficiently deployed in Singapore to reduce the carbon footprint of data centres.

The feasibility study results planned for the second half of 2021, would potentially be applicable to benefit other data centres in Singapore

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
