It’s no secret that data centers do not have a reputation for being a great neighbour. With the number of moratoriums increasing, it is critical that data centers build better relationships with the communities that they want to build in. Not only that, with public knowledge of data centers low, many do not understand the role that they place in our day-to-day lives.

This panel will discuss practical examples of the steps organisations are taking to show that they can be an asset to the local community. Investors and customers are placing more significance on ESG metrics, and with grid interactivity and innovations such as heat reuse creating more possibilities, how can data centers give back to their neighbours and be sustainable? Critically, this episode will also explore what steps can be taken to better educate the public on data centers, and their crucial importance in our digitally-connected world.
