Help me build a list of green datacenters and consulting companies around the globe..
Datacenters
Europe
Netherlands
- Evoswitch Is really going a step ahead of the competition with their Netherlands based fully climate neutral facility. I've been there and even if it's a newer managed facility they really are doing an exceptional job.
Germany
- 1 und 1 (1 and 1) As best I can translate 1und1 is using energy only from renewable sources including wind, hydropower and solar.
North America
- California
- Hosting.com EPA Green power partner. Looks like their corporate attitude is really environmentally encouraging.
- Georgia
- atlantanap While I'm not sure I should put this datacenter on the list I must say that at the very least it looks like they are trying to create policies to reduce consumption and also additional measures to ensure least impact. Maybe someone can suggest to them to participate in a carbon offsetting program or at the very least become an EPA green partner...

OLPC has received the first “gold” award that has ever been given to a laptop by EPEAT, an organization that assesses the environmental impact of laptops according to the IEEE 1680-2006 specification. XO is also non-toxic and fully recyclable.
