Sustainability
Renewable by design
Zenvolt runs on renewable-first infrastructure. Every region we operate is selected for its energy mix, its grid impact, and its ability to keep our compute clean as we scale. This page sets out our commitments, how we measure them, and what we do not yet count.
Our commitments
What we hold ourselves to
Two of these figures are read live from the region network; the third is a written commitment.
Renewable energy mix
LiveFleet-wide share of energy sourced from renewable generation. We publish the breakdown by region on the Infrastructure Network page.
Target PUE
LivePower usage effectiveness target across all Zenvolt sites. Newer regions are commissioned below this number; older facilities are upgraded toward it.
Metered reporting
100%
All sustainability metrics on this platform are derived from metered energy and contracted supply — no estimates from regional averages.
How we operate
Four rules that decide where we build
Siting, scheduling, hardware and measurement — the operating rules behind the numbers above.
Renewable-first siting
New sites are only commissioned in regions where the local grid is predominantly renewable, or where we can pair compute directly with on-site solar, wind, hydro, or geothermal generation.
Grid-aware operations
Workloads are scheduled and throttled in response to grid conditions. We curtail compute during periods of fossil-heavy supply and bias toward operating when renewables are abundant.
Hardware efficiency
We deploy modern ASIC and GPU generations, retire underperforming hardware on a fixed cadence, and target a fleet-wide power usage effectiveness (PUE) below 1.20.
Measured, not estimated
Renewable percentage and carbon offset are derived from metered energy data and contracted PPAs — not from generic regional averages. Where data is incomplete, we say so.
Methodology
How the numbers are produced
What each figure counts, how it is measured, and what it does not yet include.
How we count renewable energy
Renewable share is the ratio of metered renewable energy (from on-site generation, dedicated PPAs, and grid-supplied renewables) to total metered consumption, measured monthly per region and rolled up to the fleet.
How we count carbon offset
Carbon offset is reported as avoided emissions versus the regional grid baseline at the time of consumption. We do not net out embodied emissions from hardware manufacture — those are tracked separately and disclosed in our annual report.
What we do not yet count
Scope-3 emissions from hardware logistics, decommissioning, and office operations are not reflected in the live metrics. We are working toward a full scope-3 footprint and will publish the methodology before we report the number.
