Under the terms of the global agreement, Keysource will offer the EkkoSense datacentre optimization software to its new and existing customers as part of its solutions designed to maximise energy efficiency, save money and reduce carbon. Keysource will also support EkkoSense globally by providing professional services to users of its software as required to help them realise savings today and drive forward on a continual improvement basis.

 

The EkkoSense software provides real-time operational visibility enabling organisations to remove thermal and power risk, optimize cooling capacity, minimize energy waste and lead the way to achieve net zero across critical M&E infrastructure. It will complement Keysource’ existing sustainability focussed portfolio, from considering embodied carbon in design, through to full lifecycle optimisation, when combined with Keysource’ 40+ years’ critical infrastructure experience.

 

Chris West, Head of Manages Services at Keysource, said: “This is a powerful and mutually beneficial strategic partnership with EkkoSense providing the identification and visualisation of the opportunities and Keysource supporting datacentres to take the action necessary to realise and maximise the benefits. The result for customers will be a reduction in energy consumption, and increased sustainability, all helping to drive a sustainable strategy, to meet increasing ESG and surrounding regulatory requirements and a drive to NetZero.”

Matthew Farnell, EkkoSense’s EMEA Director of Sales added: “Our EkkoSoft Critical AI-driven data centre optimisation software is increasingly seen as the smart choice for organisations looking to optimise data centre performance while also delivering against their sustainability strategy. Keysource already offers one of our sector’s strongest portfolio of data centre energy and sustainability services, and we look forward to working together to help unlock further value for their customers.”
