Neste powers ST Telemedia Global data centres backup power generators with renewable diesel
Neste has helped ST Telemedia Global Data Centres (STT GDC), one of the world’s fastest-growing data centre providers, to become the first data center operator in Singapore to power its backup generators with renewable diesel. The switch from fossil diesel to Neste MY Renewable Diesel took place at STT GDS’s facilities in Singapore in late July this year. The fuel was delivered via Neste’s distribution partner, Interion Pte Ltd.
“At STT GDC, we are committed to implementing innovative solutions that not only enhance our operational efficiency but also contribute to improving our environmental sustainability,” said Lionel Yeo, Chief Executive Officer, Southeast Asia at ST Telemedia Global Data Centres. “The deployment of renewable diesel in our operations is a significant step towards achieving our sustainability goals, while it also supports Singapore’s climate targets. As our business grows, we want to continue to embed sustainability into every facet of our business, while at the same time, support the industry’s efforts to accelerate the use of renewable fuels.”
“We are excited to collaborate with STT GDC and help them work towards their sustainability goals by switching to Neste’s renewable diesel. This partnership highlights how easily the switch from fossil fuel to Neste's lower-emission renewable diesel can be done, without compromising data centre performance or reliability. Together, we are hoping to provide an encouraging example of more sustainable practices in the data center industry,” says Joerg Huebeler, Head of Market Development for the transportation and industry segments at Neste.
Neste MY Renewable Diesel is produced from 100% renewable raw materials. It is a drop-in fuel, the use of which does not require any modifications to the existing energy systems or fuel distribution infrastructures. With Neste MY Renewable Diesel, the GHG emissions can be reduced by up to 90 %* when emissions over the fuel's life cycle are compared with fossil diesel.
* The GHG emission reduction percentage varies depending on the region-specific legislation that provides the methodology for the calculations (e.g. EU RED II 2018/2001/EU for Europe and U.S. me California LCFS for the U.S.), and the raw material mix used to manufacture the product for each market.
