Lauren Deloatch
Project Manager

Sponsored By:
IT, particularly data centres, is a major contributor to carbon emissions – the direct and indirect generation of CO2 – and the production of millions of tons of electronic waste (e-waste) every year. To support sustainability goals, data centre operators must employ a new approach to hardware lifecycle planning and management – from design to decommissioning to redeployment and reuse. Full racks can be reused and redeployed externally. Millions of pounds of equipment can be kept out of the waste stream. That’s circular data centre thinking – and it’s how IT organisations can optimise the value of their assets and the total cost of ownership (TCO) for their entire data centre operations.
What will be discussed:
- How to leverage certified data erasure, redeployment, remarketing, reengineering and harvesting of components to divert waste from landfills, avoid greenhouse gas emissions, recover valuable metals and save energy.
- Why stringent data sanitization is fundamental to a circular data centre strategy.
- How real companies used circular strategy to remarket over 95% of retired drives and racks from their decommissioning projects and received millions of dollars back on their bottom line.
