Leading the way in Energy Efficiency

We are proactive in working towards reducing energy consumption and our dependency on non-renewable energy sources where practical and economical.

NABERS

Our M1 data centre was Australia's first data centre infrastructure to achieve a 4.5 NABERS rating, with S1 receiving certification in May 2017.

Efficient design means PUE rating of 1.3 (industry average is 1.7), with sustainable free air-side cooling that reduces power consumption.

Renewable Energy

As part of NEXTDC's active engagement in the direct procurement and investment in renewable energy, our M1 data centre has a 400kW solar rooftop array. Believed to be the largest privately funded such array in Australia, in FY17 it was responsible for:

• 481.11 MW/h in renewable energy
• Offsetting 452.24 tonnes of CO2, equivalent to the carbon generated by 96 cars annually

Energy Savings for Customers

Customers who use our data centres to power and cool their IT equipment benefit from our environmental sustainability objectives. Working together we can help sustain the future for the next generation.
