Transforming Data Centers
The Next Frontier
According to the DOE, data centers consume 10-50 times the amount of energy per square foot compared to typical commercial buildings, and currently they account for approximately 2% of the electricity consumed in the U.S. each year.
As a leader in energy engineering and construction, CEG helps building owners and managers upgrade critical data centers. We analyze existing systems within the data centers, and design and implement turnkey solutions that increase energy efficiency, enhance resilience and energy security, and modernize equipment in the data centers. We guarantee performance and leverage creative project financing to deliver comprehensive projects that meet sustainability and resilience goals.
A Trusted Partner
CEG has significant experience working in data centers and understands the complex energy needs of these facilities. We have the solutions both for traditional centralized data centers and for consolidating distributed, inefficient “server closets” and small data centers into highly-efficient, resilient data centers. We will consider both IT and facilities upgrades in our pursuit of the best overall solution for your needs.
CEG upgraded the data center at the California EPA Headquarters building in Sacramento, CA.

Leading the Charge
With projects completed and others underway at some of the government’s largest and most critical data centers, the CEG team is primed to lead this push for energy efficiency in data center design and operations. We can work with IT leadership and building management to identify the different energy conservation opportunities available and recommend the most cost-effective and proven technologies. Our team can implement IT upgrades, facility upgrades, and new construction or migration projects. Our solutions reduce data center PUE and improve resiliency and redundancy of critical systems. These comprehensive solutions advance data center capabilities while reducing energy consumption and ongoing maintenance costs.
