Powering sustainaable transformation through smarter infrastructure

Sustainability has become more than a buzzword – it’s now a requirement. From compliance targets to corporate social responsibility, businesses are being asked to do more with less energy. And while datacentres remain essential, they’re also some of the biggest contributors to enterprise energy consumption.

Exertis Enterprise, in partnership with technology leaders like Eaton and APC, is helping organisations transition to greener, more efficient IT infrastructure – without compromising on performance, security, or scalability. We don’t just talk about sustainability – we embed it into everything we do, from our operations to the solutions we recommend.

IT infrastructure contributes significantly to global emissions – but it also presents one of the biggest opportunities to make meaningful change. Here’s why it’s critical:

  • Environmental Impact: IT now accounts for up to 3% of global emissions – more than the aviation industry.
  • Energy Usage: Datacentres often consume energy 24/7, making smart optimisation and power management essential.
  • Brand & Compliance: With ESG progress under scrutiny, businesses are judged not just by what they do – but how they do it. Sustainable credentials are shaping vendor selection, hiring, and investment strategies.

We believe in leading from the front. At Exertis Enterprise, sustainability is woven into our operations:

  • 100% renewable electricity across all UK sites
  • Zero waste-to-landfill logistics and warehousing operations
  • ISO 14001 certification and Ecovadis Bronze rating for environmental accountability

We’re committed to making real impact – not just with the technologies we provide, but in how we work every day.

Our strategic alliances with leading vendors allow us to deliver energy-efficient, scalable, and sustainable solutions. Together, we help customers modernise infrastructure while meeting their ESG goals:

  • Eaton: Modular UPS systems like the 93PM and 9PX enable right-sizing and reduce power waste by up to 25%
  • APC by Schneider Electric: Smart tools like EcoStruxure™ provide real-time monitoring, predictive analytics, and actionable energy insights
  • Lithium-ion UPS batteries: Offer 2.5x longer lifespan, faster recharge times, and reduced e-waste
  • Vendor-neutral consultancy: Our in-house experts ensure the right mix of technologies for your goals—not someone else’s roadmap
  • Expanding Energy Intelligence: Our commitment to sustainable IT doesn’t end at the datacentre. Eaton’s “Buildings as a Grid” vision takes energy optimisation further, offering EV charging and power redistribution that transforms buildings into intelligent energy hubs. With scalable, future-ready EV charging infrastructure, we’re helping enterprises support sustainable transport, optimise grid usage, and extend their ESG efforts beyond IT

Sustainability isn’t only about energy—it’s about lifecycle management and transparency:

  • ♻️ Refurbish, reuse, and recycle options built into our vendor programmes
  • 📈 ESG reporting support to meet DORA, NISST2, and CSR targets
  • 🧰 Pre-configuration and pre-staging to reduce site emissions and packaging waste
  • 🔧 Remote Professional Services and Educate support, minimising travel and maximising carbon savings

Whether you’re looking to meet compliance goals or reduce total cost of ownership, our services help customers achieve both.

Green compute doesn’t just tick sustainability boxes – it delivers measurable, long-term business benefits:

  • 💡 Up to 30% energy savings in mid-size datacentres
  • 💸 Lower energy bills via efficient cooling and load balancing
  • 📊 Improved uptime, predictive maintenance, and smarter ROI forecasting
  • 🌍 Avoided costs linked to future carbon taxes and non-compliance penalties

At Exertis Enterprise, we combine smart infrastructure, proven vendor partnerships, and sustainable expertise to help businesses evolve without compromise. Whether you’re upgrading legacy systems or designing a brand-new datacentre, we’ll guide you every step of the way – with sustainability built in from day one.
