green innovation
Babylon Cloud understands that cloud services and Datacenters in general represent one of the most energy-intensive business areas in the contemporary world, and is committed to reducing its carbon footprint dramatically.
In particular, it has built a pilot Datacenter to demonstrate a new operational concept for cloud services, and is building on the same site the world’s first commercial Datacenter with enough co-generation capacity from renewable energy sources to supply the entire Datacenter’s needs for long periods of time.
The Datacenter will be able to accommodate more than 300 cabinets, structured over multiple rooms, and will be powered by a solar power plant with a total capacity of more than 11MW.
For 9 months of the year, the solar plant will power the Datacenter and the site offices during the day and recharge the batteries for the night; in addition, with the same solar energy it will generate green hydrogen that will be stored for the winter. all the excess energy produced by the solar plant, once the batteries are recharged is finished, will be fed into the power grid.

An Infrastructure Designed for Sustainability
We are committed to building a Data Center that combines high performance, energy efficiency, and environmental sustainability, while significantly reducing its carbon footprint.
The facility’s energy demand will be met primarily through electricity generated by the on-site photovoltaic system, which will directly power the Data Center during daylight hours. Any surplus energy produced…
will be stored in a battery energy storage system for use during the evening and nighttime, maximizing the self-consumption of renewable energy. Whenever solar generation and stored energy are insufficient to meet demand, the Data Center will seamlessly draw power from the electrical grid, ensuring uninterrupted operations and maximum service reliability.
The photovoltaic system has been designed to generate more energy than the facility requires during the summer months. Excess electricity that is not self-consumed can be fed back into the grid, contributing to the supply of renewable energy and helping offset the increased energy demand experienced during the winter season.
The project’s objective is to substantially reduce the environmental impact of the Data Center while increasing its energy self-sufficiency and limiting exposure to fluctuations in energy costs. By combining on-site solar generation with advanced energy storage systems, the facility will optimize energy consumption, improve overall efficiency, and contribute to the transition toward a more sustainable energy ecosystem.
From a resilience perspective, the infrastructure has been designed to ensure the highest levels of operational continuity. The integration of photovoltaic generation, battery storage, and grid connectivity provides a highly reliable energy architecture, enabling the Data Center to maintain continuous operations while relying on a modern, efficient, and sustainable power infrastructure.

sustainable innovation
The use of smart technologies and the Internet of Things (IoT) can optimize energy consumption, improving the efficiency of cities and homes. Sustainable technology is therefore essential to promote a future in which development and respect for the environment can coexist harmoniously.
Local Energy Generation
The final goal of our Data Centre is 100% cogeneration. With energy generated internally, we reduce environmental impact and ensure maximum system resilience. With data center nodes in Southern and Northern Europe, we will ensure business continuity through an advanced disaster recovery scheme. Our commitment to sustainability is a tangible reality.
Low consumption, maximum efficiency
Our Object Storage technology, combined with overbooking and deduplication capabilities ensures an industry-leading level of performance while minimizing energy consumption. By choosing our Data Center, you save money and actively contribute to safeguarding the planet. With our technology, you can store and manage your data effectively and efficiently without compromising the quality of service.
