Signal Net-zero data centers and sovereign digital corridors are named as live use cases

Summary

Among its use cases for informed infrastructure, NTT DATA describes sustainable, distributed energy and data ecosystems. Energy providers and large companies are pursuing dynamic energy management and strategies for net-zero data centres. They are also building sovereign digital corridors that link computing, storage and energy generation and distribution across regions. Digital twins model emissions and energy behaviour at grid scale, while scheduling that accounts for sustainability sends workloads where energy is available and carbon intensity is low. Hybrid cloud and edge orchestration helps with local energy optimisation, grid balancing and the integration of distributed renewables. The report says regulatory pressure and the steady growth of energy-aware technologies are driving strong investment in this area.
