Abstract

The quick growth of cloud computing has caused a revolution in industries allowing companies to expand operations, boost productivity, and come up with new ideas at speeds never seen before. Yet, this growth has brought big environmental effects. Data centers, which form the core of cloud computing, are facilities that use a lot of energy and add a lot to global carbon emissions. By 2030, experts think the energy needs of data centers in just the United States will triple making up to 12% of the country's total power use (McKinsey, 2024). This big jump in energy demand shows we need to adopt sustainable cloud computing methods to reduce environmental harm while meeting industries' growing need for computing power. A big reason for this growing energy need is the more complex tasks we're doing those powered by AI and machine learning. These game-changing technologies need a lot of computing power, which puts more strain on data centers and energy systems. Just the use of generative AI is likely to need 50 to 60 more gigawatts (GW) of data center space in the U.S. by 2030 (McKinsey, 2024). This growth shows the two-fold challenge: to scale up cloud systems while also cutting down their carbon output.
