Optimising data centre efficiency and reliability with intelligent technology. Transform your data centre with CarbonOS.

Carbonova connects energy meters, SCADA and IoT data from the electrical and cooling infrastructure, and the facility’s power contracts to CarbonOS, a platform of AI agents. CarbonOS calculates PUE, energy per IT kWh and Scope 1 and 2 emissions, flags drift in consumption and ranks efficiency measures by cost and CO₂ avoided. It does not control the cooling system: it gives the operations team the analysis and the evidence to decide.

Almost entirely from electricity: the power that runs the IT equipment and the power used for cooling, power conversion and lighting, which PUE measures as total facility energy divided by IT energy. The industry average was 1.52 in 2026 (Uptime Institute, 2026), and data centres worldwide used 485 TWh in 2025 (IEA, 2026). Direct emissions come mainly from diesel backup generators and refrigerant leaks.

Under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting scheme, a facility that consumes 100 TJ or more of energy a year, or emits 25,000 tCO₂e or more, must report its emissions and energy to the Clean Energy Regulator by 31 October each year. Large companies also report under AASB S2, which requires Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions; Group 2 entities started with reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2026.

By buying and surrendering certificates: one large-scale generation certificate (LGC) equals 1 MWh of renewable electricity, and the LGC spot price ended the June quarter of 2026 at $7 (Clean Energy Regulator, 2026). Recent government announcements position the new Renewable Electricity Guarantee of Origin as a key way for data centres to show renewable procurement, and it will keep issuing certificates after the Renewable Energy Target ends in 2030. Carbonova matches certificates to metered consumption as Scope 2 evidence.

CarbonOS matches metered consumption with power contracts and renewable energy certificates, calculates Scope 2 under both the location-based and market-based methods and keeps the evidence for every MWh claimed. This matters because the GHG Protocol is revising Scope 2: its consultation on hourly matching and deliverability closed in January 2026, and the final standard is expected in 2027. Keeping meter data at the highest resolution available already prepares operators for that change.

Yes. CarbonOS reads energy meters, SCADA and IoT data from the electrical and cooling infrastructure, invoices for power and generator fuel, and ERP systems such as SAP or Oracle, then normalises and versions everything. Each value keeps its lineage back to the meter or source invoice, a versioned emission factor and a change history, in line with the ISO 14064-3 verification standard, which serves auditors, colocation customers and investors.
