Carbon Intensity & Water Footprint
Aggregate emissions and water‑use metrics across power, cooling, and compute to quantify ESG exposure and decarbonization ROI.
KPIs
Location‑Based Carbon Intensity
Carbon intensity of electricity at the IT boundary (grid EF × PUE) without market instruments.
Higher is worse
Market‑Based Carbon Intensity
Carbon intensity after applying PPAs/onsite/CFE matching and RECs (time‑aligned where applicable).
Higher is worse
Water Use Intensity
On‑site water use per kWh delivered at the facility boundary, driven by cooling mix and reuse.
Higher is worse
Scope 2 Emissions
Market‑based operational emissions from purchased electricity over the period.
Higher is worse
Water Consumption Volume
Total on‑site consumptive water use for cooling over the period.
Higher is worse
ESG Exposure Index
Composite 0–1 index combining carbon intensity, water intensity, and local scarcity.
Higher is worse
Internal Factors
Grid Emission Factor
Hourly grid carbon intensity at the site’s interconnection (kgCO2e/kWh).
Higher is worse
Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE)
Ratio of total facility power to IT equipment power.
Higher is worse
IT Energy Demand
Hourly IT load energy consumption.
Facility Energy Demand
Total facility energy consumption (derived from IT energy and PUE).
Higher is worse
24/7 CFE Match Rate
Share of hours in which consumption is matched with carbon‑free energy.
Higher is better
REC Coverage Rate
Share of consumption volume covered by eligible certificates over the period.
Higher is better
Renewable Energy Share
Share of electricity supply from renewable sources (onsite + contracted).
Higher is better
On‑Site Generation Share
Percent of consumption met by on‑site generation (e.g., PV, fuel cells).
Higher is better
Water Scarcity Index
Local water stress/availability normalized to 0–1 (higher = more scarce).
Higher is worse
Evaporative Cooling Share
Share of total cooling delivered via evaporative systems.
Higher is worse
Water Reuse Rate
Fraction of site water that is reclaimed and reused.
Higher is better
Effective Carbon Price
Applicable carbon price combining external policy and internal shadow price.
Levers
CFE Procurement Target
Target share of consumption to be met with carbon‑free energy (annual or 24/7).
Higher is better
Hourly CFE Matching Policy Enabled
Whether procurement and tracking are configured for 24/7 hourly matching.
PUE Improvement CAPEX
Capital expenditure allocated to reduce PUE (e.g., containment, high‑efficiency cooling).

USD (millions)
Non‑Evaporative Cooling Share Target
Target share of cooling to be delivered via non‑evaporative technologies (e.g., DX, liquid).
Higher is better
Water Reuse Rate Target
Target fraction of site water to reclaim and reuse.
Higher is better
Load Shift Share
Share of flexible IT load shifted toward low‑carbon hours.
