Sustainable Data Centres: Policy Challenges, Trade-offs, and Future Directions
With data centres powering the digital economy and rapid growth of AI, what does their expansion mean for sustainability, resource use, and communities?
Join researchers, policymakers, industry representatives, and community stakeholders to wrestle with the opportunities, challenges and solutions needed to support sustainable data centre development.
The discussions and lessons from the forum will contribute to a policy paper and recommendations for a sustainable
way forward.
Attendance is in person or online, but please note, the final session of the day is an in-person only workshop with those in the room.
