What is classed as a "green host"?

Green Renewable Energy Web Hosting

The internet is a vast place where countless websites, along with their files and data, find their digital home. These websites are housed within sprawling data centers distributed worldwide, demanding substantial amounts of electricity to sustain their operations. In fact, global electricity consumption for these purposes reached a staggering 73 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) in 2020. To put this into perspective, the average household consumes approximately 3,000 kWh of electricity annually, wow.

Amidst this energy-intensive landscape, a significant question arises: How many data centers and hosting providers are actively harnessing renewable electricity sources to power their servers?

To address this, we've developed a unique tool, the green web hosting checker. By entering your website into our tool, you can discover whether your hosting, email, and domain providers are aligned with renewable energy sources.

Our data is partially supplemented by the Green Web Hosting Project.
