Colocation’s hidden sustainability edge

November 24, 2025

With sustainability concerns becoming increasingly important to consumers, cloud service providers are put under even more pressure to ensure their data centres are running in an environmentally conscious manner. 
Gartner data shows that over the past few years, more than 90% of organizations have increased their spending on emissions reductions. 
Almost all cloud service providers are implementing sustainability initiatives, but their strategies and progress towards achieving net zero emissions vary significantly. 
At the same time, SkyGroup Cloud’s partner data centers are all high-performance data centers powered by 100% renewable energy worldwide. 
 
And yet, not just sustainability but also AI workloads are reshaping how enterprises design their data center strategies, driving a shift toward colocation facilities that ensure scalability and reliability benefits: 

Colocation’s Sustainability Edge

Many companies choose colocation for reliability and interconnection but overlook its potential to reduce emissions and energy costs through lower PUE ratings. 

AI Workload Diversification

Companies are moving beyond hyperscale public clouds, increasingly using edge, near-edge, and third-party data centers to support AI/ML operations. 

Sustainability as Strategy

While 39% of organizations prioritize reliability in choosing colocation, only 10% recognize sustainability as a key factor—despite its environmental and financial advantages.
