Why Data Centre Emissions Need To Be Counted Separately
The government’s promise to be the “greenest government ever” is in tatters, but those tatters still include a green energy tax, the CRC - which is on life support but still exists. CRC, in its final form, amounts to an extra charge on energy use by organisations above a certain size. The idea is to encourage businesses to operate more efficiently and cut their energy use – thereby cutting the country’s emissions. But data centres are fighting the idea, saying it will make them less competitive than other countries.
