April 2023 Next-gen HPC delivers sustainability, efficiency, and lower TCO Case studies Colocation Sustainability Download the case study Home Insights Case studies Next-gen HPC delivers sustainability, efficiency, and lower TCO A powerful vision To deliver more value to its customer and fuel emerging HPC needs, BNP Paribas required exponential infrastructure growth. In keeping with its mission and working with atNorth and Dell Technologies they were able to expand responsibly and build a “future proofed” HPC infrastructure. The data centre solution provided was to move a portion of their operations to Iceland and utilize its renewable energy sources. As a result, BNP Paribas lowered TCO, with 50% less energy and 85% less CO2 output. 50% less energy Reduced consumption through efficient design 85% fewer emissions Significant cut in CO₂ footprint 100% renewable power Powered entirely by green energy lower total cost Sustainable infrastructure, reduced TCO high density compute Optimized performance in less space future-ready platform Scalable, efficient, and built to last atNorth, in collaboration with Dell Technologies, provides BNP Paribas with a state-of-the-art Infrastructure as a service solution.
