Industry associations such as Dutch Data Center Association and Green IT
The Foundation issues certificates for, among others, SIC/DcIC
Several certificates are in development
SIC
SIC stands for Server Idle Coefficient. This is the ratio of the IT Workload/Idle consumption of a server to the total energy consumption. Idle use can be seen as avoidable energy loss.
DcIC
The DcIC represents the weighted average of the SIC for all servers in a data center.
Data centers can be certified under the guidance of a DC Certifier or data centers can do it themselves via a certified calculation system, the DC Aggregator.

‘Double green and we give away the residual heat for free?’’
After all, the newspapers are now full of criticism of the data center industry. Together with you, I often find that unfounded.
Towards a covenant on energy consumption
I have received reactions to my latest articles from various organizations and people.
Grip on numbers; Figures highlighted; Numbers…
Do we need a data center energy protocol?
Numbers — many equations are used to illustrate the current and future ‘consumption’ of data centers, but do we really know it exactly?
