• LEED Gold Certified – One of the two buildings at the Somerset facility (227k sq ft) was certified for LEED Building Design & Construction under the Core and Shell standard
• Regional Water Stress:  The Somerset area currently faces medium-to-high water stress, which is projected to increase in the next decade

This facility is a legacy site that doesn’t use CyrusOne’s Zero Water Consumption Cooling so it consumes water like most data centers, but we are examining opportunities for reducing water use at this facility. (Risk assessment and projections based on WRI Aqueduct Tool)

• Regional Grid Greenhouse Gases: How much greenhouse gas does this facility’s local electrical grid emit while generating electricity?  (Useful for Location-based greenhouse gas reporting)

The carbon-intensity of the grid has improved about 3.3% points per year over the last 14 years of published data.  Reported by the US EPA eGRID for the NPCC New England subregion (NEWE).

• Regional Grid Renewables: What percentage of this facility’s local electrical grid is from renewable sources (wind, solar, biomass, hydro, and geothermal)?

This has been increasing about 0.5% points per year over the last 14 years of published data.  Based on US EPA eGRID data for the NPCC New England subregion (NEWE).
