Organic data centers: A sustainable solution for computing facilities

In the present perspective article we provide an overview of on-going work in the literature and possible future development of organic data centers (ODC). These are defined as the combined operation of a data center and a greenhouse, and given their compatible thermal and operation requirements, OD...

description In the present perspective article we provide an overview of on-going work in the literature and possible future development of organic data centers (ODC). These are defined as the combined operation of a data center and a greenhouse, and given their compatible thermal and operation requirements, ODCs have the potential to provide an excellent solution in terms of sustainability. In particular, we identify possible positive impacts of ODCs on at least 5 of the 17 United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDGs 2 and 13 on zero hunger and climate change, respectively. •Organic Data Centers (ODC) are the combined operation of a data center and a greenhouse.•ODCs have the potential to provide an excellent solution in terms of sustainability.•ODCs have a positive impact on at least 5 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).•The thermal and operation requirements need to be investigated in future works.
