At Africa Data Centres, we understand the environmental impact data centres can have. That's why we're proud to be pioneers in sustainable technology solutions across Africa.   In Kenya, we've made significant progress by integrating 1MW of renewable energy, which contributes to 10% renewable energy penetration. Even though the Kenyan grid is around 90% green, Africa Data Centres continues to contribute to the addition of renewable energy to its own consumption.   This National Tree Planting Day, we invite you to join us in protecting our planet for generations to come. Let's plant the seeds of change and cultivate a healthier environment – together.   #Sustainability #NationalTreePlantingDay #AfricaDataCentre #GreenTech   Learn more about our sustainability initiatives: https://lnkd.in/dasd5Vbt

Africa Data Centres, a business of Cassava Technologies is Africa’s leading data centres company with interconnected data centres across the continent. Data centres are the infrastructure cornerstone of the digital economy. Increasing internet penetration, the adoption of cloud technologies, video streaming and now AI are all driving rapid increases in demand for data centre storage and computing capacity across Africa. Data centres are now the central nervous system of the internet. Our response has been to accelerate investment in our data centres business with the support of U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, IFC - International Finance Corporation, Royal Bafokeng Holdings, Gateway Capital and British International Investment. Recently I spent time reviewing the progress of our data centre expansion program in Cape Town, a city that is part of our AI data centres cluster strategy. This is part of delivering on our vision of a digitally connected future that leaves no African behind.

Africa Data Centres welcomed a bright group of students from the University of Johannesburg (UJ) for a visit!   We gave them a behind-the-scenes look at the fascinating world of data centres, providing insights into how these vital facilities power the digital age. Our team enjoyed sharing their expertise and answering the students' insightful questions.   We believe it's important to inspire the next generation of tech leaders and we hope this visit sparked their curiosity about the exciting world of data storage and infrastructure. #SouthAfrica #EnergyTransition #WomenInEnergy #Training #RenewableEnergy USAID Lisa Witte U.S. Embassy South Africa
