The race to build AI infrastructure is now a race to prove it can be built and operated responsibly. Community opposition is growing, state legislation is multiplying, and regulators and stakeholders are scrutinizing power, water and carbon claims. That pressure doesn’t stop at the data center fence. It flows down to the suppliers behind the servers, cooling systems, electrical gear and building materials, who are increasingly asked for credible, product-level carbon data.
In this session, Sphera experts will show how a single, trusted sustainability data foundation can connect the whole chain, from the first consent case to daily operations, and from operators to the suppliers who support them. You’ll also hear how a leading hyperscale operator is using life cycle assessment expertise and content to build product-level carbon data at scale and prepare for automation.
You’ll learn how to
- Build consent cases backed by evidence that holds up under scrutiny
- Compare design scenarios and spot embodied carbon hotspots before decisions lock in
- Collect supplier data at scale and compare suppliers on primary data, not estimates
- Respond to customer requests for product carbon footprints with consistent, verified data
- Track air, water, refrigerant and waste data by site and keep operations within permits
- Connect facility and product data to corporate reporting, targets and disclosures
Who should attend
- Sustainability leaders at data center operators and developers
- Sustainability, product stewardship and compliance leaders at data center equipment and material suppliers
- Engineering, procurement and operations teams who rely on sustainability data
- Anyone responsible for Scope 3 reporting across AI infrastructure projects
