Key Highlights

• The Middle East and Africa green data center market account for around 10% of the overall data center market in the region. The region, primarily Africa-based countries, has been slow in adopting efficiency in operations due to lower fund availability. However, investment is expected to grow with more funding flowing into the industry and global operators entering the market.
• Colocation operators in the Middle East and Africa green data center market, such as Equinix, Moro Hub, Digital Realty, Gulf Data Hub, and Rack Centre, have been investing in efficient operations to achieve their sustainability goals.
• Innovations in green operations are also being explored. For instance, Saudi Arabia is exploring free cooling using salt and sunlight, wherein this electricity-free cooling technique is being developed at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST).
• The increased hyperscale data centers in the region and the need to power the facilities with renewable energy will also be a significant revenue boost for renewable energy suppliers and energy companies.

Government Interest in Curbing Carbon Emissions Will Drive Market Development

o  Several regional governments are driving the requirement for sustainable data center operations to ensure a reduced carbon footprint. Several countries have announced plans to become carbon neutral between 2030 and 2050.

o  The Saudi Arabia government aims to achieve net zero emissions by 2060. It is conducting the Middle East Green Initiative (MGI) Summit and the Saudi Green Initiative (SGI) in November 2022 to chart actionable plans to combat climate change.

o  The UAE has planned to reduce its carbon emissions by 31% by 2030.

o  As per the National Determined Contribution (NDC) 2020, South Africa announced that its range of GHG emissions will be between 398 million tonnes of CO2 to 440 million tonnes of CO2 by 2030.

o   Governments are also partnering with renewable energy companies to develop renewable energy projects like wind and solar farms.

High Adoption of Innovative Power Technologies

Reduced space requirement and low OPEX, achieved through less-frequent battery replacement and maintenance, are significant factors driving lithium-ion batteries' use. UPS battery failure, especially with VRLA batteries, is another major reason for power outages in data centers, further prompting operators to migrate to lithium-ion UPS solutions.

It has a low TCO due to a longer lifecycle, low maintenance requirements, great energy efficiency, and endurance for higher temperatures. Reduced cooling system demand equals lower power use and CO2 emissions. Furthermore, lithium-ion batteries are significantly smaller and lighter, saving space and structural support in structures because of their increased power and energy density.
