Head of Sustainable Investment Amanda MacDonald and Head of Public Markets Todd Hoare sit down with NextDC Chief Executive Craig Scroggie on the topic of accelerating the path to decarbonisation.
This episode of the podcast discusses how data centres at NextDC, are critical to supporting the rise of artificial intelligence and digital services, but also face immense challenges in balancing energy demands and sustainability goals. CEO Craig Scroggie explains that shifting enterprise computing from inefficient office environments to purpose-built data centres greatly improves energy efficiency, and that Australia’s abundant renewable resources position it as a potential leader in sustainable digital infrastructure. Despite global and political complexities, NextDC is investing in innovative cooling and energy solutions, and aiming to maintain high standards for energy efficiency while supporting Australia's net zero ambitions.
