## Level Up for Earth: How Clean Tech is Powering the Future of Gaming
Gamestanza, where the pixels meet the planet!
In 2025, Earth Day isn’t just about recycling and planting trees. It’s about powering up for a greener future – a future where our love for gaming doesn’t come at the cost of our planet. As the digital world explodes, data centers are at the heart of it all, consuming massive amounts of energy. But what if we told you that the future of gaming is powered by clean tech?
Towards Sustainable Gaming: Exploring Energy-Efficient Data Center Technologies
Telehouse Europe’s Pioneering Commitment to Clean Energy
As the gaming industry continues its explosive growth, the environmental impact of data centers powering online gaming experiences has come under increasing scrutiny. Gamestanza recognizes the need for sustainable practices and has been closely following the strides made by industry leaders like Telehouse Europe in implementing energy-efficient technologies.
Telehouse Europe, a leading provider of data center infrastructure, has made a significant commitment to clean energy through a groundbreaking partnership with RWE, the UK’s largest power generator. This 10-year power purchase agreement (PPA) guarantees a substantial portion of the renewable energy powering Telehouse’s London Docklands campus will come directly from London Array, an offshore wind farm situated in the outer Thames Estuary.
Securing a Sustainable Future: Telehouse Europe’s 10-Year Renewable Energy Partnership
This landmark deal, commencing in October 2025, will see RWE supply clean, renewable energy to Telehouse until the end of 2035. This strategic move not only secures a reliable power supply but also provides significant cost savings and price stability for Telehouse and its clientele.
“This power purchase agreement ensures Telehouse and its customers have reliable access to clean, renewable electricity, providing certainty on price and the robustness of supply,” says Olaf Lubenow, Head of Commodity Solutions UK, North & South Europe of RWE Supply & Trading.
The London Array Partnership: A Case Study in Green Energy Procurement
The London Array partnership stands as a compelling example of how data center operators can actively contribute to a more sustainable future by procuring renewable energy directly. This model allows for greater transparency and control over energy sources, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and minimizing carbon emissions.
London Array, one of the world’s largest offshore wind farms, generates enough clean electricity to power over 1.3 million homes. By partnering with RWE and London Array, Telehouse Europe is directly supporting the growth of renewable energy infrastructure and contributing to the UK’s ambitious net-zero targets.
The Benefits of Renewable Energy: Cost Savings, Reliability, and Environmental Responsibility
The move towards renewable energy brings a multitude of benefits for both Telehouse Europe and the gaming community it serves.
- Cost Savings: Renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, have become increasingly cost-competitive with traditional fossil fuels. PPAs offer price stability, protecting Telehouse from volatile energy market fluctuations.
- Reliability: While weather conditions can impact the output of renewable energy sources, modern wind farms and sophisticated energy management systems ensure a reliable and consistent supply of power.
- Environmental Responsibility: Renewable energy generation produces significantly fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels, directly addressing the urgent need to mitigate climate change.
