Abu Dhabi Ports aims to cut emissions by half with Smart Container Initiative

The Smart Container Initiative has been launched by Abu Dhabi Ports to house its digital solutions in a resilient, stable and optimized, eco-friendly mobile environment.

The solar-panelled steel and aluminium smart container, powered by clean energy, uses environmentally sustainable technology such as in-line cooling, renewable energy and efficient allocation of space that will minimize Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) by more than 20 percent and reduce carbon emissions by half.

A broad range of mission-critical applications are operated by the prefabricated containerized data centre, including port and terminal operating systems, guest passes, and other automated customer services.

A key element in the digital technology success of Abu Dhabi Port lies in its ability to deliver differentiation through hybrid cloud architecture.
