Green Computing Ecosystems: IDTechEx Explores Sustainable Data Centers

Data centers can be likened to an ecosystem of computing facilities that contain many facets required to store and handle data. IDTechEx's latest report, "Sustainability for Data Centers 2025-2035: Green Technologies, Market Forecasts, and Players", unpacks efforts being made in the data center sector towards increased sustainability in response to the rising CO2 emissions from the development of AI.

Green Technologies Continue to Thrive - IDTechEx and Sustainability

As the United States withdraws from the 2015 Paris Agreement, which established globally shared goals that pledged to contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, concerns about the future of sustainable technologies are growing. However, IDTechEx identifies key areas where sustainable growth can remain a reality.

IDTechEx Explores Big Tech's Impact on the Quantum Computing Market

In the last few months, three of the world's largest tech giants made waves with their announcements in quantum computing. But what will the impact of Microsoft's Majorana 1, Google's Willow, and Amazon's Ocelot be once the dust has settled, and is it just big tech making strides in developing quantum computers?

Data Centers Investing in Nuclear, Fuel Cells, and Li-ion Batteries

IDTechEx forecasts that by 2035, the global data center sector will have saved US$150 billion by using low-carbon energy sources compared to a fossil fuel scenario (taking 2024 as the baseline). Some emerging energy technologies expected to play an increasingly important role are explored in this article.

Which AI Hardware Will Rise Above in the Wake of Competing AI Models?

The grip of AI has continued to hold, with strong competition to develop more powerful AI models, active innovation in the semiconductor industry, and continued investment in the High-Performance Computing (HPC) data center market. Artificial Intelligence has been a hot topic, particularly since generative AI's introduction with large language models (LLMs). In today's landscape, there is an ever-growing plethora of generative AI applications, not limited to generating images, videos, code, and data.

CPUs, GPUs, and AI - Exploring High-Performance Computing Hardware

The use of graphics processing units (GPUs) within high performance computing (HPC) has been increasingly adopted since the introduction of generative AI and large language models, as well as advanced memory, storage, networking, and cooling technologies. A major catalyst for growth has been the integration of AI into HPC workflows, where a convergence of the two unlocks opportunities in various fields by combining the powerful computational power of HPC with the intelligent data processing and "decision-making" of artificial intelligence.

Robotaxis on the Rise - IDTechEx Explores Autonomous Vehicles

Robotaxis are proving they can offer driverless services in certain cities, as a means of accessible and modern public transport. In 2023, IDTechEx reports that 9 million registered autonomous vehicle miles were logged across the state. Key leaders in this commercial autonomous vehicle and robotaxi space are Waymo, having submitted half of all the miles recorded in California to date, and Cruise, which, although accounted for 30% of these miles, has recently been shut down.
