What is the EU Code of Conduct?
The European Commission published the EU Code of Conduct for Data Centre Efficiency in November 2008.
It is the first step towards common standards for data centres.
The Code is a guideline of the European Union to improve operational processes and to apply, support and distribute Best Practice Strategies in data centres and their infrastructures. It is already supported by many well-known manufacturers.

How do you register your data centre?
If you operate a data centre, you can support the code as "participant". You stand for and support the improvement of the energy and environmental balance and can actively have a say in the future of data centres with regard to specifications, regulations, laws, standards or certificates for environmental protection.
