Data centres developments have baseline costs like utilities, land, civils and structure...
It means our clients can make arrangements for carbon offsetting prior to the data centre facility being handed over.. We continue to investigate and take opportunities to make use of the heat that is generated by the cooling of data centres.with provision for heat export suitable for connection to district heating or industrial processes where viable.. We are also working with data centre clients on alternative sources of clean energy; an area where we see significant potential for data centres to become autonomous, and to promote the use of cleaner standby power systems.. A positive future for data centre design.

As society’s requirement for data processing grows, so the market for data centres will continue to grow – and at a frantic pace.The potential impact of our integrated approach, therefore, driving efficiency and improving performance, will only be more important for our clients and their customers..It is not sustainable, or desirable, to continue building more and more traditional data centres.

By ensuring that every element of these crucial facilities is viewed as an integral part of the whole, and by optimising all of them together, we will continue to work with our clients to ensure that the future of this market is a positive one.Jaimie Johnston MBE., Head of Global Systems at Bryden Wood, hosts.
