Sabey Data Centers has joined the Climate Pledge, the company just announced. The net-zero-carbon commitment, with a 2040 goal of reaching that standard, was launched two years ago by Amazon and Global Optimism. It now has some 200 signatories worldwide. SDC president Robert Rockwood said in a statement, “Data centers are energy intensive, representing 2% of all U.S. electricity use. Throughout our 25-year history, we have always given thought to the sources of electricity that power our data centers.” He added that two of its five large centers already use 100% renewable energy. “For the future, our portfolio of data centers will be ‘net positive,' energy users, producing more electricity — all from renewable sources — than we can use.” SDC has over 3.5 million square feet of data centers, including SDC Seattle, which is just south of town in Tukwila.
