Industry stakeholders are increasingly recognizing that greener data centers offer long-term financial benefits. These facilities are more attractive to multinational corporations (MNCs) and end-users committed to reducing their carbon footprints. Green bonds and sustainability-linked loans are becoming prevalent financial tools that incentivize investments in environmentally responsible infrastructure.

In the Asia-Pacific region alone, green debt reached approximately $185 billion in 2021, with China leading the market. South Korea and Japan also occupy significant positions, indicating a regional shift toward sustainability finance. This evolving landscape demonstrates the financial viability and strategic importance of investing in eco-friendly data centers.
