“Cool technology” for the most energy-efficient data center in the world
Eni S.p.A. | Ferrera Erbognone, Italy The Italian energy company Eni, a major integrated energy company operating worldwide, constructed a new data center in Ferrera Erbognone, Italy. The challenges to face were high cooling requirements in combination with ensuring low energy consumption and an uninterrupted power supply. In addition to enabling the data center’s ecofriendly performance and efficiency, all systems were handed over on time as a turnkey solution. The new data center operates with a significantly low power consumption and just a very small environmental footprint. Siemens supported building one of the world’s leading data centers in terms of energy efficiency. It saves about 335,400 tons of CO₂ emissions every year, a figure that corresponds to 1 % of the savings Italy is attempting to achieve by the year 2020 in line with the Kyoto Protocol.
