If the alternative is to power the datacentres with gas turbines, I would say that PV+BESS is pretty green.
Sure, but using more sustainable options to provide power to increase consumption is the overarching point to me. Maybe this is less bad, but I don’t view it as pretty green in comparison.
Yeah, the only truly green option is to skip the datacenter entirely. Well that’s not the reality where we live.
