HPE gets servers TCO certified for sustainability

HPE has had its servers certified for sustainability to ensure that its channel partners can include a green element in customer pitches.

HPE is now TCO Certified for sustainability and met the criteria in the touch data centre product category. It means that the hardware is sustainable even after having its lifecycle, including supply chain responsibility and hazardous substances assessed.

TCO Development CEO Sören Enholm said that his organisation spent more than 20,000 hours verifying products and the factories where they’re made according to the criteria in TCO Certified.

“We expect more brands to follow. The interest in our data centre product categories is high, both from the industry looking to apply for TCO Certified for their products, and from the purchasing community asking for products with independently verified sustainability claims”, he added.

The HPE ProLiant XL 170r Gen 10 and XL225n Gen10 Plus have now been added to that list.
