In 2020, Servers and Data Storage products consumed 48 TWh/a of electricity. Without measures, this is projected to increase to 70 TWh/a in 2030 (+45%). Due to the proposed measures this can be reduced to 67 TWh/a, a saving of 4%. This electricity saving corresponds to a reduction of 0.3 MtCO2eq/a of greenhouse gas emissions in 2030.
