STACK Infrastructure (STACK), a digital infrastructure partner to some of the world\u2019s most innovative companies and a leading global developer and operator of data centres, has announced it has successfully implemented the use of the advanced biofuel HVO100 (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) as a standby power source for a new data centre on its OSL04 campus in Holtskogen (Oslo), Norway.\u200b <\/p>\n\n\n\n

STACK is committed to reducing, and eventually eliminating, Scope 1 emissions from its data centers, as noted in its recently published ESG Report. After rigorous testing, HVO100 \u2013 the purest form of HVO \u2013 is now being utilised instead of fossil fuel-based diesel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advanced biofuels such as HVO are typically made from vegetable or used cooking oil and generally produce fewer emissions than regular fuel. Research suggests 1,000 litres of HVO releases 195kg of carbon dioxide, compared to 3,600kg for the same amount of regular diesel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HVO100 has also been shown to produce approximately 33% lower levels of fine particles, 9% fewer nitrogen oxides, 30% fewer hydrocarbons, 24% lower carbon monoxide and lower levels of polyaromatic hydrocarbons than traditional diesel. Lower smoke and soot emissions were also\u202frecorded when using HVO. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSTACK understands that sustainability is a business imperative that shapes how we design, construct and operate critical infrastructure in an increasingly digital world,\u201d said John Eland, CEO, STACK EMEA. \u201cTo address our Scope 2 emissions, we already utilise 100% renewable energy across our global data centre portfolio. Implementing HVO100 aligns with our commitment to reducing our Scope 1 emissions, marking a significant step toward a greener future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geir Vistung, Manager of STACK\u2019s OSL04 Campus, added: \u201cWe are proud to be pioneering green initiatives in Norway. Our heat reuse programme in Oslo is award-winning, we harvest rainwater to support our cooling systems at several of our data centre campuses, and the use of HVO100 is yet another example of industry-leading innovation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to this latest facility on the OSL04 campus, two more STACK data centres became operational this year in Oslo, increasing STACK’s footprint in Norway by another 18MW. STACK\u2019s continued expansion in the Nordics also includes a 72MW campus under development in Copenhagen and an 18MW campus under development in Stockholm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

STACK\u2019s EMEA presence spans additional key markets including Milan, Geneva, Zurich and Frankfurt, with an operational and planned portfolio amounting to more than 1GW across the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
