The European Data Centre Association (EUDCA) has reiterated that Europe's energy transition and digital expansion must move forward in tandem as the demand for AI continues to soar.
The organisation, which advocates and campaigns for data centre companies across the continent, has renewed its commitment to climate-neutral, grid-integrated data centres while continuing to call for greater investment in electricity networks and policies that support long-term energy resilience.
The group's latest statement comes at a time when Europe is up against the two-pronged challenge of delivering the energy that AI requires while also improving the sustainability of data centres.
Michael Winterson, the EUDCA's Secretary General, says: "We reaffirm our commitment to sustainability, irrespective of technological developments or changing demands.
"A liveable, equitable and sustainable future remains our utmost goal."
