Opt for an environmentally friendly hosting with Themecloud

More and more prospects and customers ask us if we are an eco-friendly hosting company.

This is very good news because it shows that there is a real awareness on the subject!

On the other hand it made us realize that we never communicated on the eco-responsible aspect of Themecloud, which we remedy with this article.

Themecloud's environmental commitment can be summarized in three main areas: 

  1. the choice of a cloud infrastructure resolutely committed to zero emissions
  2. telework as a generalized mode of operation
  3. support for associations with ecological goals 

Themecloud is based on an eco-responsible Infrastructure WITH GOOGLE CLOUD

We seek the best and most reliable service for our customers, but certainly not at the expense of the environment! If we chose Google it is also to reduce the environmental impact of our services and this by giving you access to the best technology. With Google Cloud you benefit from unparalleled availability and performance while offsetting the digital footprint generated by your websites! 

You'll see in the chart below that Google is by far the most committed to sustainability ahead of all other cloud players.

100% of renewable energy

In particular, Google makes a point of offsetting all of their operations with renewable energy projects, which includes their data centers and Google Cloud! This makes Google the world's largest purchaser of renewable energy in the enterprise sector.

For every watt our company consumes, we purchase at least one watt from renewable energy sources.

Google Cloud Platform

Zero Emission associated with computing resources!

By relying on Google Cloud rather than a traditional data center, Themecloud, and its customers thus meet the "net zero emissions" objective for computing and storage resources.

Optimized data center to reduce energy footprint

In addition to promoting the use of renewable energy, Google is constantly optimizing its servers and data centers to limit energy consumption.
For example, conventional data centers consume almost as much energy for peripheral processes (cooling etc.) as for powering the servers themselves.
Google has managed to reduce this ratio to 11%!
Google also uses AI (artificial intelligence) to optimize the resources consumed by the servers, resulting in an energy efficiency gain of 15%.

Towards 24/7 carbon-free energy

As mentioned above, Google now offsets every watt of non-renewable energy purchased with the purchase of one watt of renewable energy. This is due to the fact that currently, renewable energy is not available 24 hours a day in all regions where Google data centers are located. 

But the ultimate goal is even more ambitious: to rely exclusively on renewable energy for 100% of operations, 24/7. To achieve this, Google is investing heavily in the renewable energy sector, even if it means creating its own renewable energy sources.

ISO 5001 certification

Of course, it is not necessary to take everything that big companies say about the environment at face value. That's why Google is ISO 5001 certified, which guarantees a leading energy policy.

 

Themecloud works at 100% in teleworking

Teleworking is a way of working that is becoming more widespread and that's good!

This mode of operation brings only advantages and in particular: : 

  • employee well-being and improved productivity
  • Reduced carbon footprint through reduced travel and energy costs
Many companies have switched to 100% telecommuting. We can obviously mention Automattic, the mayor house of WordPress.com led by WordPress co-creator Matt Mullenweg. Or even the French agency specialized in WordPress Whodunnit whose co-founder Emilie Lebrun regularly defends teleworking in the French media.

At Themecloud we are proud to be part of those companies that are adopting new ways of working that are more fulfilling and more eco-responsible.

Themecloud supports associations with an environmental mission

Themecloud already has to support solidarity, open source and educational actions.

However, we go further on the subject of the environment with a promotion of 70% applied without conditions for all associations with an environmental mission wishing to host their site on our platform.
