Green Hosting renewable energy on the internet

Posted September 11th, 2008 by STAR
Tags:

Canada's first internet hosting service powered 100% by green energy.

They generate electricity through wind power, which is then fed back into the grid. So while it's not directly powering theit servers / data centre, in my opinion it is better that purchasing carbon credits after the fact.

Acorn Host

I have no experience with them, but from their website:

"Our web hosting company is 100% powered by green power

Acorn Host purchases Green Certificates monthly for the amount of energy that is used to run the servers, office equipment, lights, etc. Renewable Energy Certificates (also known as Green Tags or Green Certificates) are a simple way to effectively power a business (or your home) on 100% renewable energy resources, without changing electricity providers. The idea is to pay for green energy to be put into the power grid equal to the amount of energy you use."

The Kit That Turns Gas Guzzlers into Plug-In Hybrids

http://www.thedailygreen.com

Sitting in a Connecticut warehouse, the very first Poulsen Hybrid looks like a standard Honda Civic with immobilizer boots attached to its rear wheels. It is, one would have to say, not the most visually elegant of solutions to the pressing problem of using electric power to extend the range of the internal-combustion automobile. But it's also both practical and affordable.
