Server farms are energy- and resource-intensive facilities, whose characteristics include enormous electricity consumption, cooling systems that emit heat and noise, the creation of electromagnetic radiation, and the use of land, water, and fuels intended for operating the farm in an emergency.
As a result, advancing plans for server farms requires environmental support in various disciplines, such as: predicting electromagnetic radiation and noise exposure levels in nearby land uses as a result of the facility’s operations, and assessing the risks of hazardous materials from the liquid fuel stored at the facility for emergency use.
In addition to environmental support for the planning team on these issues, our company also prepares environmental documents for these types of plans and supports the developer in dialogue with the various environmental authorities.
