Interview: CyrusOne on the sustainable innovation that drives datacentre business outcomes | Computer Weekly
"[EHS] is actually a profit centre in the company," he says. "I know people tend to think it isn't. Compared to some other hats that I've worn, sustainability is usually not a cost centre."
"Yes, [it's] all that good stuff. People love to share best practices. Speaking with customers is where I hear what's innovative, what they're working on and which competitors they'd point to."
"So, sustainability conversations can and do deliver "the best intel" in ways that ultimately drive innovation through sharing and transparency, Myers says."
Sustainability programs reduce energy use and cut operational bills while also creating trusted partnerships that encourage sharing of best practices and innovation. Data sharing with customers reveals innovations, competitive insights, and practical approaches that inform continuous improvement. Environmental, health and safety work often generates measurable financial benefits and can operate as a profit centre rather than a cost centre. Experience drawn from manufacturing and chemicals sectors informs EHS strategies applied in colocation and cloud infrastructure environments. Educational background in environmental public health and safety combined with an MBA supports cross-industry sustainability leadership and strategic liaison activities.
