Viatel Powered by 100% Renewable Energy Sources
Viatel Technology Group is proud to announce a major milestone in our sustainability journey. As of May 1 2025, Viatel’s asset portfolio, including our datacentres, is powered exclusively by 100% renewable energy sources. As a core element of our connectivity network and data centre services, this transition guarantees that every unit of electricity we use is backed by certified ‘Guarantees of Origin’—verifying that our energy comes exclusively from clean, sustainable sources.
High Site Asset and Procurement Manager at Viatel Eleanor Lawlor said:
We’re proud to be backed by certified Guarantees of Origin, which verify that the electricity powering our operations comes from 100% renewable sources. These certificates provide transparent, traceable proof of our commitment to clean energy, helping us reduce our carbon footprint and support a greener future for our customers and communities. Choosing Viatel means choosing a partner that prioritises environmental responsibility and leads with integrity.
This achievement means that all of our contracted power usage is now green, reinforcing our commitment to environmental responsibility and a low-carbon future. This step aligns with our values and our vision for a more sustainable digital infrastructure. Viatel is committed to annual reductions in carbon footprint, targeting a 90% reduction by 2030 from a 2024 baseline of 2,415 tCO2, with an initial 50% in 2025.
We’re proud to continue our mission towards more sustainable practices and contribute to a cleaner, greener Ireland and beyond.
