Iceland to provide carbon neutral servers
Sunday, October 11, 2009
There may be some aesthetic draw backs to sticking hundreds of warehouses in the beautiful landscape of Iceland! However the idea of providing data farms in a carbon neutral manner is incredible. Servers worldwide create a carbon footprint equal to the airline industry (according to Jeff Monroe) but Iceland is cold and has a natural, renewable, carbon neutral energy supply. Perfect for powering the data farms and keeping them cool!
Watch this space deFreeze will be providing a carbon neutral hosting service as soon as the first data farms are up and running!
