Swiss Datacenter Efficiency Association: Measured Efficiency for Sustainable and Compliant Operations
Info
The Swiss Datacenter Efficiency Association (SDEA) brings together industry and academic pioneers to ensure energy efficiency in datacenters is measured, not guessed. We provide advanced tools that not only measure efficiency but also ensure alignment with key industry standards and regulations. At the core of our offering is the SDEA Navigator – an integrated online tool that assesses full-stack efficiency across IT and datacenter infrastructures. While the Navigator incorporates industry-recognized standards such as EN 50600 and ISO/IEC 30134, it goes beyond these benchmarks by providing a more comprehensive, holistic approach to measuring energy performance. Through its three calculators for DC Infrastructure Efficiency, IT Infrastructure Efficiency, and Carbon Footprint, the SDEA Navigator enables datacenters to optimize their operations and ensure compliance with both local and international regulatory standards. Using the SDEA Navigator allows companies to not only measure their energy efficiency but also showcase it through SDEA Label, a modular certification that highlights best-in-class performance. Achieving this label enables organizations to demonstrate their commitment to sustainability and ESG reporting, making their operational excellence visible to investors, clients, and regulatory bodies. Whether certifying IT infrastructure, DC infrastructure, or both, SDEA Label helps position companies as leaders in efficiency and environmental responsibility. In a world where rising technologies like AI and 5G demand more energy, the SDEA tools ensure datacenters can stay compliant, exceed evolving regulations, and stand out in an increasingly eco-conscious market. By leveraging SDEA Label, organizations reduce their carbon footprint, lower operational costs, and gain a competitive edge in the race for sustainability leadership.
