The One Million Tonnes Campaign

Maximize your profits and minimize your environmental impact

As data centre and IT energy consumption continues to grow at an unsustainable, exponential rate the One Million Tonnes Campaign aims to cut back carbon emissions by 1 million tonnes in Europe’s IT activity. That boils down to 1 billion or 30% in savings on operational and development costs.

The campaign will achieve its objectives through an online open community of members and experts. Members will be able to explore and collaborate on environmentally friendly and economically viable solutions. It will bring solutions, including Beeyon’s unique Papillon data centre and IT energy and performance management system to boost profitability and make our shared environment greener.

 

Finding and creating new opportunities. Act now.

Face the facts:

  • Wasted energy from the world-wide the data centre industry could power New York twice over;
  • Data centres emit as much CO2 as the airline industry;
  • In a typical data centre 30% of the IT assets are completely redundant;
  • If trends persist, data centres will consume 20% of all electricity production by 2025.

The good news is that there are many opportunities for improving the way we deploy and use our IT assets. But, as we move towards achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement, it’s not just about new technologies. It’s about our willingness to act with commitment.

Now is your chance to show your commitment while also achieving significant cost and energy reductions in your data centre, or IT facilities. Join the One Million Tonnes Campaign as an early adopter!

Beeyon – Helping identify up to 40% in costs and emissions savings

Beeyon brings you Papillon: the tool that gives you control over your data centre energy and performance management. Involving no data centre downtime, Papillon installs in minutes and integrates easily with existing systems. It’s a game changer that analyses energy consumption and translates this into meaningful business KPIs, it also automatically identifies energy saving options.

Adopt-a-Tree programme

On average, a mature tree absorbs 22 kilos of carbon per year. An average laptop, on the other hand, has a carbon footprint of approximately 42 kilos every year. The Adopt-a-Tree programme demonstrates the impact of even minor IT activity. It also shows that if we are prepared to act – even in a small way – we can effect a change that has an impact in a much larger way.

The first plantation is located in County Wicklow in Ireland, a brisk 30-minute drive from Dublin. Similar plantation sites will be supported by  Beeyon throughout Europe.

Innoenergy is the EU’s largest sustainable energy programme. The One  Million Tonnes Campaign is supported by InnoEnnergy and the Solar Impulse Foundation, one of the world’s largest sustainable solution partners
