Regulation-wide (no rule set) Companies with an average annual total final energy consumption of more than 7.5 gigawatt hours Companies with an average annual total final energy consumption of more than 2.5 gigawatt hours Operators of data centres Data centres that started operation before 1 July 2026 Data centres that start operation from 1 July 2026 Data centres with a non-redundant rated connected load of 1 megawatt and above Operators of data centres offering services to third parties Data centres owned by or operated for public bodies

A data centre that starts operation from 1 July 2026 must be built and operated so as to achieve a power usage effectiveness of 1.2 or below. The requirement must be met permanently as an annual average no later than two years after commissioning. In the calculation, the electricity used by installations serving solely to upgrade the waste heat of the data centre is disregarded.

Ein Rechenzentrum, das ab dem 1. Juli 2026 den Betrieb aufnimmt, ist so zu errichten und zu betreiben, dass es eine Energieverbrauchseffektivität von kleiner oder gleich 1,2 erreicht. Die Anforderung ist spätestens zwei Jahre nach Inbetriebnahme im Jahresdurchschnitt dauerhaft zu erreichen. Bei der Berechnung bleibt der Stromeinsatz von Anlagen unberücksichtigt, die ausschließlich der Aufwertung der Abwärme des Rechenzentrums dienen.
