As large energy prosumers in district energy systems, on the one hand, data centers
consume a large amount of electricity to ensure the Information Technologies (IT) facilities …

Data centers (DCs) uninterruptedly run 24/24 h, 365 days per year with much huge
operating scale, and have the characteristics of high operation safety requirement, high heat …

The volume of landfill gas (LFG) produced during municipal solid waste (MSW)
decomposition in local landfills has increased rapidly in recent years. To promote circular …

As the number of data centers is increasing worldwide, there are concerns about their
growing electricity demand on power grids and its impact on the environment. These …

The fast development of large data centres increases energy demand, pressuring energy
systems and potentially hindering progress towards climate targets. Nevertheless, data …

As a perennial stable heat source, Data Centers release a continuous increasing amount of
waste heat. Besides rejecting it into atmosphere by traditional refrigeration ways, how to …

To better make use of the waste heat in distributed data centers, a new design of integrated
waste heat recovery system that can meet different needs including heating for users and …

Abstract The city of Espoo, Finland is planning to develop Kera as a green suburb with high
level of energy efficiency and low CO2 emissions, using a high share of renewable energy …

This paper reviews findings on the (potential) impacts of the digitalisation (or “digital
transformation”) on the environment, with a focus on non-energy impacts. We understand …

Fifth-generation district heating and cooling (5GDHC) systems have the potential to provide
simultaneous heating and cooling, allowing for energy exchange between users with …
