Domande frequenti sulla sostenibilità

What is Equinix’s approach to environmental responsibility?

Equinix progetta, costruisce e gestisce data center ad alte prestazioni che ottimizzano il consumo di energia e acqua, rispettano gli standard edilizi riconosciuti e integrano pratiche circolari e spazi verdi.

What role does sustainability play in the development of Equinix’s new data centers?

Equinix punta su materie prime e materiali chiave per ridurre le emissioni di carbonio incorporate nei progetti di costruzione. Grazie alla collaborazione con i nostri appaltatori generali, integriamo la sostenibilità nei nostri data center di nuova costruzione attraverso un modello basato su tre pilastri. Evitare: individuare le opportunità per utilizzare meno materiali, evitando del tutto alcune emissioni. Ridurre: scegliere alternative a minore impatto ambientale per i materiali che non è possibile evitare. Innovare: esplorare collaborazioni che accelerino e diffondano tecnologie e materiali a sostegno di un futuro a basse emissioni di carbonio.

What are Equinix’s green data center initiatives?

Equinix investe in iniziative ambientali in grado di avere il maggiore impatto possibile. Queste aree comprendono l'approvvigionamento e la disponibilità energetica, il prelievo e il consumo idrico, i rifiuti e l'economia circolare, nonché la riduzione della nostra impronta di carbonio attraverso l'efficienza, soluzioni energetiche pulite e rinnovabili, materiali da costruzione a basse emissioni di carbonio e la collaborazione con i fornitori per ridurre le emissioni lungo tutta la nostra catena di valore.
