Why IT needs a plan to lower power consumption and carbon emissions in 2023

Power consumption has become a top concern for both local and global businesses. In South Africa, rising power costs and the need to run infrastructure on backup or renewable power is raising questions around the energy efficiency of IT infrastructure. Internationally, investors are focusing their attention on companies that have positive environmental and social governance (ESG) characteristics.

A requirement for listed companies to report their ESG data formally within the annual accounts from 2023 is likely to drive Boardroom pressure to lower Carbon Emissions, and as the data centre is the biggest contributor to emissions for most companies, IT will form a core part of any Carbon Emissions strategy.

To get ahead of what is likely to be the number one Boardroom agenda item in 2023, it is important to understand the why, the what and the how, of an effective Carbon Emissions reduction strategy. Nutanix, in partnership with ITWeb, invites you to join this webinar where Steen Dalgas and Paul Smuts, Cloud Economists from Nutanix, will help answer these questions and help to demystify a highly complex critical business topic.
