EcoDataCenter first data center to utilize Alfa Laval heat exchangers that are using SSAB Zero steel

EcoDataCenter to be an industry first in deploying Alfa Laval heat exchangers made using recycled steel produced without new CO2 emissions from SSAB. This deployment signifies a pivotal moment in the ongoing effort to reduce carbon emissions within the supply chain, exemplifying the significance of collaboration.
For us it is crucial to leverage innovations together with partners. This underlines the importance of collaborative efforts in mitigating emissions.

Peter Michelson CEO at EcoDataCenter

The result of a Life Cycle Analysis made of the latest datacenter at EcoDataCenter shows that 60% of the embodied carbon comes from the equipment. The introduction of Alfa Laval heat exchangers made using SSAB Zero™, a recycled steel produced without new CO2 emissions, is a step forward in EcoDataCenter's mission to reduce emissions within the supply chain.

“Alfa Laval's commitment to sustainability is further strengthened through our collaboration with EcoDataCenter. By incorporating recycled steel in our heat exchangers, we are not only reducing our own carbon footprint but also driving the entire value chain towards a cleaner and more sustainable future.” Anna Blomborg, Industry Manager Data centers, Alfa Laval

About the SSAB Zero™:

SSAB Zero™ has zero fossil carbon emission (less than 0.05 kg CO2e emissions per kg steel in scope 1 and 2) in operations, including purchased energy and transportation. SSAB practices market-based emission factors for the electricity used and may secure fossil-free electricity through electricity guarantees of origin. Fossil fuels remain in the ground as SSAB has implemented a system to manage and ensure the correct source and use of alternatives connected to the production of SSAB Zero™. Only recycled steel is used as a raw material, which means SSAB Zero™ supports the circular economy. SSAB does not engage in carbon emission offsetting activities.
