Research from the DatacenterDynamics 2012 Global Census has revealed that datacentre energy demands have increased by 63 percent in the last 12 months.

Power requirements have jumped from a global demand of 24GW in 2011 to 38GW in 2012, with carbon emission regulation failing to stem rising usage.

The research points towards a trend of increasing power demand, raising concerns over power availability and rising costs.
