The Energy Efficiency  Steering Group is chaired by John Booth 

The DCA Energy Efficiency SIG has members that sit on the EU and UK Standards Development Organisations and provides a two-way conduit for the discussion and development of the ISO TS 22237 series, the EN 50600 series and the ISO 30134 series of data centre design, build and operate standards and data centre key performance metrics.

Our chair is also an author and committee member of the EU Code of Conduct for Data Centres (Energy Efficiency) best practices and requests applications from members for new, amended or deletion of best practices on an annual basis for discussion at the European wide EUCOC best practices meeting held in September/October every year.

We also look at emerging concepts for the sustainability of the data centre building in terms of energy flexibility and waste heat reuse as well as alternative on and off-site energy generation for primary and backup purposes.

We work very closely with the sustainability group to provide DCA members with an entire overview of data centre energy efficiency and sustainability.
