Bluebird Network Sets 2040 Goals

 Bluebird Network, a colocation data center and communications infrastructure provider,  commits to achieving its goal of reaching net zero carbon emissions by the year 2040.

In order to reach this emissions goal, Bluebird determined the amount of GHG emissions generated by its facilities and will be revamping its existing sustainability initiatives. The company plans to reduce its GHG emissions across all activities. The company’s other sustainable solutions include:

• Created a used electronic purchasing program
• Created an electronic recycling, reuse, refurbish program
• Purchased dynamic fuel model vehicles to replace older models
• Established closed-loop water systems within data centers
• Adoption of LED lighting technologies at data center facilities and
• Creation of hot air return plenums at data center facilities to improve cooling efficiencies

“As a communications infrastructure provider and colocation data center operator, we’re assuming our responsibility and taking action to reduce our carbon footprint,” says Elliott Gillespie, VP of Operations at Bluebird Network in a statement. “We have always prioritized energy efficiency, but now we are taking a step further to ensure we’re doing our part to protect the environment and help our customers and partners do the same.”

The company will continue its energy audits and commissioning on facilities to determine Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) and will support improvement in energy efficiency measures that ultimately reduce GHG emissions.
