Willdan Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: WLDN) announced today that it has delivered energy efficiency projects for a large data center in the Pacific Northwest, exceeding 4.1M kWh in annual savings and reducing peak load by 475 kW. Willdan has supported projects for the data center’s owner – a national telecommunications service provider – for nearly a decade. In this latest project, Willdan secured more than $1.7 million in incentives through local utility energy efficiency programs to help fund the early replacement of uninterruptible power supply systems. Close collaboration between Willdan and the service provider’s team allowed for seamless upgrades without data center downtime.

According to the EPA Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator, the energy saved by these projects is equivalent to avoiding the emission of 2,908 metric tons of CO2 or removing 692 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles from the road for one year.

“Artificial intelligence and other new technologies have the potential to significantly increase energy consumed by data centers,” said Mike Bieber, Willdan’s CEO. “By using energy efficiency strategies, data center owners can reduce cooling loads and increase reliability.”
