Our Environmental Commitment As A Web Hosting Company
There is a growing need to reduce carbon emissions, increase energy efficiency, and generally improve the sustainability of life. We can do this by reducing, reusing and recycling material, planting trees, or using energy efficient alternatives to the things in our lives.
Vodien is a company that has been committed to sustaining a greener, cleaner world since the beginning. We were one of the first green web hosting providers in Singapore, and we pride ourselves on being able to provide excellent support to our customers on top of that.
Not many people know that the average server produces the same amount of emissions as a car, nor realise that the data centre where all the servers are located can consume as much electricity as over 25,000 households. Taking these into consideration, the average server can produce around 13 tonnes of carbon dioxide a year - equivalent to the sum of what your desktop, your car, and your home produces in a year!
We are a company with big support for our Earth. See EarthHour.org.
Vodien is committed to caring for the environment in every way possible, and we do so by maximizing IT productivity and saving energy. In order to provide our web hosting customers with lower overall power consumption and carbon dioxide emissions in the data center, we invest in greener Dell servers that achieve industry-leading performance per watt, and are 20% more energy efficient than the average server. These servers also qualify for the new ENERGY STAR® specifications sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Defense. On top of that, our company policies focus on reducing, reusing, and recycling as much as we can.
