Our Sustainability Initiatives

Greener Infrastructure for
Smarter AI

Our mission is to decarbonize digital infrastructure at scale
while accelerating India's AI ambitions.

Building Datacenters with
Purpose and Responsibility

At RackBank, sustainability isn't an afterthought, it's embedded
into every rack, every watt, and every data hall we build. From
greenfield sites in Tier-2 cities to immersion-cooled GPU zones,
we are reimagining what it means to run responsible, AI-ready
infrastructure in a power-hungry world.

Sustainable, energy-efficient AI infrastructure.

Significantly reducing carbon emissions.

Carbon-neutral datacenters run entirely on 100% renewable energy.

100% Green Power Strategy

We're actively transitioning our campuses to solar and gas-based hybrid energy, supported by long-term partnerships with providers like ReNew Power. Several of our upcoming AI datacenters, like Nava Raipur, are designed to operate with zero carbon power at launch.

Varuna Immersion Cooling

Our patented cooling system allows for up to 150kW per rack while reducing cooling energy consumption by over 90% compared to traditional air cooling. This drastically cuts overall PUE and enables denser AI compute with lower environmental impact.

Regional Datacenter Development

We're strategically building in regions like Indore, Raipur, Mumbai, Nagpur, and Chennai, reducing transmission loss, creating local jobs, and avoiding unnecessary urban infrastructure burden. It's sustainability beyond carbon social and infrastructural sustainability.

Smart DCIM for Energy Optimization

Real-time tracking of power, cooling, and workload distribution across all datacenters enables predictive analytics, fault prevention, and intelligent energy tuning, ensuring that no watt goes to waste.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our AI infrastructure services,
project process, and technical expertise.

What is RackBank's core sustainability mission?

RackBank's core mission is to decarbonize digital infrastructure and achieve a carbon-neutral future. They are committed to building green-powered datacenters and implementing innovative technologies to reduce the environmental impact of AI and digital services.

How does RackBank power its datacenters sustainably?

RackBank is transitioning its campuses to a solar and gas-based hybrid energy model. Their goal is for all new datacenters, such as the upcoming one in Nava Raipur, to be powered by green energy at launch. They are also working with partners like ReNew Power to ensure a consistent supply of clean energy.

What is the Varuna Liquid Cooling system, and how does it contribute to sustainability?

The Varuna Liquid Cooling system is RackBank's patented cooling technology. It is highly efficient, capable of supporting high-density racks (up to 150kW), and reduces cooling energy consumption by over 90% compared to traditional air-cooling methods. This contributes to a drastically reduced PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness), with a target as low as 1.3.

What is Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), and why is RackBank's PUE important?

PUE is a metric used to measure a datacenter's energy efficiency. A lower PUE indicates greater efficiency. RackBank's target PUE of 1.3 is significantly better than the industry average of 1.6, demonstrating a more efficient use of power and a smaller carbon footprint.

How does RackBank's regional datacenter strategy support sustainability?

By building datacenters in key cities across India, such as Indore, Raipur, Mumbai, Nagpur, and Chennai, RackBank reduces the distance data needs to travel. This strategy minimizes transmission loss and the energy required for data transfer, while also creating local jobs and fostering regional economic growth.

Does RackBank have other sustainability initiatives?

Yes, RackBank is developing Energy Recovery Systems to utilize waste heat from their operations. They also have carbon offset programs, which include reforestation initiatives and solar-credit programs, to reduce their overall carbon footprint further and promote a greener environment.

What is Smart DCIM, and how does it help with energy optimization?

Smart DCIM (Datacenter Infrastructure Management) is a system that uses real-time tracking and predictive analytics to monitor the datacenter's power and cooling systems. This ensures that energy is used as efficiently as possible, preventing waste and contributing to the overall sustainability goals.
