6th annual Sustainability Week Europe
AI has created unprecedented demand for computing power, putting growing pressure on energy, water and materials. Research from the International Energy Agency suggests electricity demand from data centres worldwide will double by 2030, with AI a major driver of this increase.
How can the tech sector balance rapid growth in compute demand with sustainable resource use? Which strategies — from renewable energy and advanced cooling to circular hardware — are making operations more efficient? And as AI use spreads across business, how well are organisations measuring its true impact on energy consumption, carbon emissions and cost?

October 6th, 12:05–12:30 — Main stage panel
The cost of compute: navigating the sustainability trade-offs
What the panel will cover
- Efficiency is a full-stack outcome. We optimize from energy sourcing through hardware, cooling, orchestration and software, so improvements compound across every customer workload.
- Useful compute is the right measure. We focus on delivering more value with AI and making every watt and GPU count, balancing utilization, performance per watt, reliability and total cost.
- Transparency enables responsible scaling. We have measured and reported our environmental impact since our inception, strengthening accountability and providing a clear baseline for improvement.
