The Opportunity
More data

  • Demand for data is increasing exponentially, consuming increasing amounts of data.

  • Over 1 billion new internet users are expected over the next 5 years with someone in the developed world interacting with a data centre every 18 seconds by 2025.

  • If internet consumption and expenditure were a sector, its weight in GDP would be larger than the energy industry. It is expected that there will be a capital expenditure of £400bn annually to meet demand.

1 billion new internet users by 2027
At faster speeds

  • Companies want to increase the speed of data transmission driven largely by consumer demand.

  • Amazon has claimed that every 100 milliseconds of latency reduces their sales by 1%.

  • Consumer demand for internet excellence highlights the critical role that digital infrastructure plays in facilitating the operations and success of many businesses.

100ms equals a 1% sales reduction
Reducing the digital divide

  • Digital inequality reinforces existing social inequality. The UN has identified internet connectivity as a key driver of economic development and mobility.

  • 2.9 billion people are digitally excluded worldwide, with 6.9 million in the UK and 19 million in the United States.

  • Internet access accounted for 21% of GDP growth in mature economies over the past 5 years.

2.9 billion people still not connected to the internet
In a world fighting a climate crisis

  • Digital infrastructure is increasingly demanding higher use of finite natural resources.

  • This is particularly evident in data centres which are putting increasing strain on local and national electricity networks. Data centres also account for about 2% of total GHG emissions, the same as the aviation sector.

  • The opportunity to create sustainable digital infrastructure requires a unique and focused strategy.

Data centres account for 2% of global GHG
