Jury Statement

Digital Realty Switzerland GmbH has achieved something that was considered impossible until recently in the field of electricity efficiency: a PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) of 1.1. At a time when energy is scarce on the one hand and energy consumption is high on the other, not least in the field of AI, this is a genuine game changer. Because of Digital Realty's success, the industry association actually had to introduce a new "Platinum" level alongside its previous highest level, "Gold." Their approach breaks with conventional standards and is clearly trailblazing.
