How we’re making Cloudflare’s infrastructure more sustainable
Cloudflare's commitment to sustainability includes reducing its carbon footprint by investing in more energy-efficient infrastructure and hardware systems engineering. The company's goal is to achieve a 100% renewable energy mix for its data centers and operations, which it has achieved across its facilities worldwide. To further reduce its carbon footprint, Cloudflare is leveraging modular hardware systems designs, maximizing power efficiency through testing and deployment of more efficient architectures, and using domain-specific accelerators. Additionally, the company is working towards industry-standard reporting for greenhouse gas emissions in the IT sector, which will help establish a baseline for carbon footprint reduction efforts across the industry.
