Growing Use of Renewable Energy
Many data center service providers have invested in clean, renewable energy sources to run their existing and future facilities as a result of the rising data center power usage and the desire to reduce carbon footprint. The two main energy sources in the United Kingdom are oil and natural gas, both of which have a negative influence on the environment. On the contrary, 38.2% of the energy generation is done through renewable sources such as wind power, solar power, hydropower, and biomass energy. In addition, 20GW of electricity was produced by wind contributing to 70% of electricity generation in November 2022. Moreover, Domestic Renewable Heat Incentive (DRHI) and Green Gas Support Scheme and Green Gas Levy both call for the National Renewable Action Plans (NREAPs) to be implemented in order to fully use the country's potential for renewable energy. Recently, United Kingdom has received an investment of more than USD 38.38 million to produce renewable energy by developing cutting-edge innovative new energy storage technologies such as thermal batteries and liquid flow batteries. Furthermore, government initiative toward proliferating the large-scale projects to adopt and support renewable energy such as the Renewable Obligation (RO) initiative was set by the Department for Business, Energy, and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). Therefore, growing use of renewable energy has led to the growth of data center in the United Kingdom market.
