The QTS Difference
Prioritizing carbon-free energy
QTS is advancing the carbon-free transition and helping bring online many new large-scale carbon-free projects.
QTS works closely with utility companies to identify innovative and sustainable ways to best serve our customers, the community and the environment.
We implement long-term power provider partnerships and secure electrical service agreements for large-scale campuses years before commissioning.
Our infrastructure updates and investments facilitate improved reliability and modernization of the power grid, ultimately benefiting residents and keeping rates cost-effective.
QTS aspires to source the maximum amount of carbon-free energy.
In 2024, QTS achieved full utilization of carbon-free operational electricity across our facilities.
We actively invest in renewable energy projects and are exploring options like geothermal energy and nuclear power to ensure a steady and sustainable energy supply for our data centers.
QTS hosts utility summits with key industry participants, partnering with energy leaders to discuss opportunities to solve complex industry constraints and challenges, and helping support corporate sustainability awareness and practices. QTS participates in several sustainability programs and partnerships that help distinguish us from other data center providers.
QTS is one of more than 90 U.S. companies that have committed to halve their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030. QTS has committed to 50% GHG reductions within 10 years from a 2022 baseline.
QTS is amember of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Green Power Partnership program, which encourages organizations to buy green power to reduce the environmental impacts of their electricity use.
CEBA works to unlock the marketplace for all nonresidential energy buyers and transition to a zero-carbon energy future. In partnership with CEBA, QTS continues to advocate for more cost-effective pricing for renewables across the country and speaks at numerous events sharing sustainability expertise across our sector.
