Chindata Group Joins RE100, Committing to 100% Renewable Power in Its Global Data Centers by 2040
22 September 2021 - 12:55PM
Marking the first anniversary of China’s pledge to hit peak
emissions by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2060, Chindata Group, a
leading carrier-neutral hyperscale data center solution provider in
Asia-Pacific emerging markets, is officially joining the RE100
initiative on 22 September 2021. The company also announces its
2040 carbon neutral goals, wherein all of its next-generation
hyperscale data centers around the globe will be powered by 100%
renewable energy solutions by 2040.
RE100 is a global renewable energy initiative
jointly launched by The Climate Group and CDP in 2014, bringing
together businesses around the world that are committed to 100%
renewable energy. To date, over 300 global companies have joined
the initiative, some of which have already achieved that goal
through their own means or the purchase of Renewable Energy
Certificates and renewable electricity.
Chindata Group has successfully implemented net
zero carbon emissions solutions for digital infrastructure in China
through green power consumption initiatives including direct green
power trading, innovative regional green power consumption
mechanisms, development of renewable energy power stations, and
development of integrated power Generation-Grid-Load-Storage
projects. As a result, the company is confident that it is on track
to achieving 100% renewable power in its global data centers by
2040, benefiting from factors such as the global zero-carbon
digital infrastructure and manufacturing industry chain as well as
innovative Asia-Pacific clean energy synergies. This effort also
aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals
(SDGs) of addressing the most pressing challenges facing
mankind.
In addition, Alex Ju, Founder and CEO of Chindata
Group, a pioneer who champions the renewable power transition in
the digital infrastructure industry, will be the headline judge for
the RE100 Leadership Awards 2021. The Awards recognize the
outstanding work of RE100 members in accelerating the transition to
100% renewable electricity.
