Remote Work Tools that Make a Difference
Data centers and servers need a lot of power. ANHALT INTELLIGENCE takes advantage of electricity produced in Germany and from providers who generate their electricity from renewable and sustainable sources.
Support green IT with Anhalt Intelligence from Halle (Saale)!
The energy powering our servers:
100% hydroelectric!
Data cables are extremely expensive to build, let alone to keep up. A single undersea data cable across the Atlantic—such as the ones built by Google—can cost 350 million U.S. dollars! These costs and other expenses are passed on to you, the customer. We need cleaner solutions.
At Anhalt Intelligence, our servers are located in colder areas to reduce artificial cooling and are powered by run-of-river hydroelectric plants. Each of these plants feeds approximately 30 million kilowatt-hours into the grid each year.
EMAS-certified in accordance with ISO 14001
Our German data centers have an efficient environmental management system in accordance with EMAS / ISO 14001. All processes and procedures are sustainable and efficient.
100% Hydropower
Our data centers are powered by energy from run-of-river power plants at various locations in Germany, including Donaueschingen, Rheinfelden, and Blumberg.
Our electricity consumption:
8 times more efficient than the others!
With PUE values ranging from 1.10 to 1.16 in our partners’ data centers (average: 1.13), our power consumption is extremely low.
We use sustainable transportation
Anhalt Intelligence uses bicycles, public transportation, and hybrid vehicles, and takes advantage of mobility services such as Nextbike and teilauto. In this way, we do our part to reduce our carbon footprint.
Our goal: to reduce CO2 emissions by 1.5 million metric tons!
According to the Borderstep Institute, working from home and video calls (instead of business trips) can save up to 70 million cars or 150 million metric tons of CO2 per year globally!
Refurbished Policy
We focus on the circular economy and purchase refurbished laptops and other hardware for our office or facilities.
Natural Air Cooling
Our data centers—particularly those in Finland—are cooled with natural outside air for up to 98% of the year. By selecting primarily cold locations, we help conserve regional water resources and reduce energy consumption.
Efficient Use of Waste Heat
The waste heat from our partners’ data centers are used to head the adjacent offices and production spaces. We are committed to the efficient use of energy.
Green Energy
Our data centers are powered by electricity from regional sources. No pipelines, no fossil fuels. Green electricity from Germany.
