Kyocera embeds sustainability in its identity, and was recently included in the TIME World's Most Sustainable Companies of 2024, says Heidie-Mari Middel, production team leader at Kyocera Document Solutions South Africa.
The company commences construction on a new hyperscale data centre, with 40MW of critical power load, at its Isando Campus.
The servers are empowered by new components from Intel and AMD, contributing to the development of efficient and green computing power infrastructure.
The partnership brings together UVU Africa’s expertise in ecosystem building, entrepreneurship and skills development with C4EC’s global network of support for system orchestrators.
The vendor-neutral data centre provider starts construction of its 120MW utility-scale solar PV power plant in the Free State.
Teraco will own the 120MW solar PV plant in the Free State and wheel the renewable energy to its data centres.
Under Alberto Gambacorta’s leadership, Scatec will hone its focus on expanding its renewable energy portfolio in Southern Africa.
The telco supports a move away from linear consumption patterns to a circular economy, which minimises resource consumption.
The drive towards energy efficient equipment coincides with a broader industry movement to lower operational costs and carbon emissions, says Greg Griffith, senior product manager at Kyocera Document Solutions SA.
However, South Africans are still concerned about electric vehicle cost, range and charging infrastructure, says Ford.
The company was recognised as Cisco's Global Sustainability Partner of the Year for the second consecutive year at the Cisco Partner Summit 2024.
