I’m excited to inform all our clients that all our hosting is now officially powered 100% by renewable energy.
This means that if we host your website, it is now powered exclusively by wind and solar power, a great message for you to share with your customers.
Additionally, our data centre is highly energy efficient with a PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) of 1.12. PUE describes how efficiently a data centre uses energy; the lower, the better. Most hosts have a PUE of 1.2 or higher.
Why is green hosting important?
The internet costs a lot to power: around 400 terawatt-hours a year. While an individual website’s footprint is small, it all adds up: the internet is responsible for around 3.7% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
That’s similar to the amount produced by the global airline industry.
With our green hosting, you can be assured that your website will avoid contributing to climate change. It also helps guard against the swiftly rising energy costs so we can keep our hosting costs low.
