Style Agent Website Co. is proud to use 100% green web hosting provided by Krystal Hosting. Krystal are on a mission to put an end to the damaging days of web hosting by showing that great tech doesn’t always mean bad for the planet.
Did you know? The internet is one of the most carbon-polluting industries on the planet, consuming an estimated 416.2TWh of energy per year – more than the entire United Kingdom! It’s a fast-growing industry, but slow to change: most of this power is still generated from fossil fuel sources.
But it doesn’t need to be this way.
Krystal offers uncompromisingly good web hosting with industry-leading technology that’s better for you and the planet.
Green hosting
In 2017, Krystal became one of the first website hosts to be powered by 100% renewable electricity from the sun, wind and sea. This means no shady carbon offsetting, just a direct relationship between their datacenters and Ecotricity to power the facility with energy generated by 100% renewable sources.
Energy efficient datacenters
Krystal’s data centers have achieved a PUE rating of 1.2 or less. PUE stands for Power Usage Effectiveness and is the ratio of the total amount of energy used by a datacenter to the energy delivered to computing equipment. The closer to 1 the better. Krystal’s new flagship UK datacentre has a PUE of just 1.05, meaning that for every watt of energy spent only 5% is used on building infrastructure like power and cooling, with the rest reaching the servers.
Millions of trees planted!
Krystal Hosting works with tree-planting organisations around the world, helping to reforest coastlines, build up local communities, returning land back to wildlife, and making the world better. This is something we can whole heartedly be in board with.
