As part of our continued efforts to reduce energy costs and help address climate change, Equinix has deployed a 1MW rooftop solar system at our ME1 International Business Exchange® (IBX®) data center in Melbourne, Australia. This is not only one of Equinix’s largest solar PV systems globally, but one of the largest at any data center in Australia. This, along with previous deployments in Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney (BR1, CA1, SY7, ME2, SY9X, SY2 and SY4), provides a total of approximately 1.8MW of clean energy to local power grids in Australia.
