A recent whitepaper from Data Center Dynamics highlights the critical role of precise environmental measurement in reducing cooling energy consumption, lowering operating costs, and supporting sustainability goals in data centers. As modern facilities face rising power densities and increased workload demands, even slight inaccuracies in temperature and humidity readings can lead to inefficient HVAC performance and unnecessary energy waste.
The guide, developed in collaboration with measurement technology experts, provides actionable insights for data center operators, facilities teams, and infrastructure engineers. It demonstrates how enhanced accuracy in environmental monitoring enables better optimization of cooling systems, reduces instances of overcooling, and improves overall operational resilience and efficiency.
By examining real-world examples and case studies, the whitepaper shows that precise measurement isn’t just about compliance or control — it directly impacts energy use, costs, and carbon emissions over the long term. Operators that invest in better sensing and measurement frameworks are positioned to achieve measurable improvements in both performance and sustainability.
