DCW News Desk: Legrand driving conversations in the DC

Sustainability must do more than just give warm fuzzy feelings -- data centers need to ensure maximum ROI, PUE and uptime while still serving the greater good of the industry. Legrand's director of strategy for its Data, Power and Control Division, Rebecca Gilstrap, sat down with Data Center Knowledge Editor in chief, Wendy Schuchart at Data Center World 2024 to talk through what is ailing the data center industry -- lip service to sustainability without true inherent commitment from the ground up. Individual product choices actually impact their environment and the people around them -- and those impacts are measurable.

Harmonix, power quality and wave form capture are mere calibration points that really impact the bottom line. Even something as simple as the packaging of physical components being saved from landfills are part of an organization's ecosystem that impacts its own footprint, but also have the potential to make the world a better place.

Legrand’s sustainability conversation does not stop there, Join Omdia’s Vladimir Galabov, Research Director of Cloud and Data Center, along with industry experts from Legrand’s Data, Power, & Control division for a data-driven panel discussion on Thursday, May 30, 2024, at 11:00 AM EDT. The discussion will revolve around simple strategies that AI-focused data centers can use to optimize their energy efficiency and future-proof the data center industry.
