Innovations needed for transition to sustainable digital infrastructure
No less than 90% of Dutch people use the internet every day. We all want to continue Netflixing, streaming music, zooming and apping. As a result, the amount of data used will grow – possibly up to twenty times as much by 2030. Ever-expanding data centers are already finding it increasingly difficult to integrate into the energy system and landscape. Critical materials are also becoming increasingly scarce.
At the same time, the Netherlands wants to maintain its digital leading position and excellently functioning digital infrastructure. The transition to a sustainable digital infrastructure is no longer desirable. It is necessary. Innovative solutions are essential for this.
