Summary
The Everpure Impact Report 2025 highlights the steps we’re taking—and progress we’re making—to help customers achieve more performance while consuming less energy and physical space in the data center through our products.
It feels both fitting and daunting to open our 2025 Impact Report with AI. The AI boom is reshaping the global business landscape, driving data center power consumption into uncharted territory and raising urgent questions about grid capacity, energy security, and costs. The IEA projects that electricity demand from data centers will more than double by 2030, fueled in part by AI.
The enterprise is at a crossroads: How do we enable large-scale AI innovation while minimizing environmental impact?
Our annual Impact report highlights the progress Everpure has made on this front—through product innovation and by advancing tools and approaches that address sustainability challenges and deliver positive outcomes.
With years of experience helping customers achieve both performance and efficiency at scale, we understand that sustainability must extend beyond products. It requires a robust framework that spans supply chains, accounting, legal, and every function across the enterprise.
As energy and innovation pressures rise in tandem, companies need “360-degree strategies” that bring a sustainability lens to every practice, tool, and product—across supply chains, accounting, legal, and other functions—in order to make a meaningful difference.
We Still Aim to Bend the Curve
It always starts with product innovation. For more than 15 years, we have built products that help customers achieve more performance while consuming less energy and physical space. Our foundational product ethos has been “doing more with less”—a message that resonates more than ever as energy needs skyrocket everywhere.
Coupling the density profile and capabilities of all-flash with smart software has helped us deliver an exceptionally high-performing, reliable, and energy-efficient data storage platform. For example, in FY25, we more than doubled our product density through the introduction of 150TB DirectFlash® Modules (DFMs)—through operating environment optimizations and a chassis redesign—all without an increase in power consumption. For perspective, a single Everpure DFM can replace 15 or more hard-disk drives (HDDs) over its 10-year service life, which drastically reduces e-waste.
This ethos powers our AI-focused infrastructure, where solutions like FlashBlade//EXA™ enable higher performance per watt and less rack space for AI workloads—the epitome of doing more with less.
Everpure Fusion™ 2.0 helps redistribute energy waste by reducing idle and/or stranded workloads and redundant storage hardware. Additionally, our Evergreen//One™ subscription-based storage enables up to 80% lower power and space consumption compared to competitive offerings.
Across the Value Chain
We’re serious about sustainability across our entire value chain. Earlier this year, the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) validated our near-term goals, recognizing our Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction target as aligned with the most ambitious 1.5°C pathway. By FY30, we aim to cut Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 42% (from our FY23 baseline) and reduce the GHG emissions intensity of our products (Scope 3.11) by 51% per petabyte.
We now use 100% renewable electricity in several key offices, such as Santa Clara, Prague, Bangalore, Bellevue, and Lehi.
Suppliers are a key part of our sustainability strategy. We’re working directly with suppliers to mature their sustainability disclosures and capabilities, with the goal that 45% of our suppliers by spend—specifically on purchased goods and services—will have set science-based targets by 2029.
Efficiency extends into how we build product. Every one of our Tier 1 contract manufacturer sites is ISO 14001-certified for environmental management. We conduct quarterly sustainability scorecard reviews with key strategic suppliers, who represent more than 50% of our total supplier spend. And Everpure has joined the CDP Supply Chain Program to drive climate-related awareness and disclosures across our supplier base, requesting disclosures from over 70 suppliers that represent 70% of our supplier spend.

Expanding Our Approach
We continue to integrate forward-thinking methods and practices into our designs, services, and intelligence to prioritize both performance and responsible practices. Here are some examples of how our energy strategy impacts our products and how we’re advancing transparency with our customers.
Circular Economy in Action
We consistently seek to maximize a product’s utility and high performance. Our products are increasingly designed for a modular, circular hardware lifecycle, which drastically reduces waste and environmental impact. Evergreen//One and the new FlashArray//RC20 enable this modular approach. FlashArray//RC20 uses remanufactured components, which reduces GHG impact by approximately 18%, backed by the same six nines of reliability of our Evergreen® architecture.
The Evergreen upgrade path avoids forklift refreshes, which cuts e-waste by up to three times. Recycled materials now account for at least 60% of front panel bezels on new models.
Impact Accounting
Our sustainability strategy is grounded in transparency and accountability. One of the more promising emerging methods that we have adopted is impact accounting (IA), which translates environmental and social outcomes—like greenhouse gas emissions, water and land use, and waste—into monetary terms. This gives us clearer insights into trade-offs and priorities and helps us make more informed and sustainable decisions.
In FY25, we completed our second IA model, covering our entire value chain to help us focus on the areas where we can make the biggest difference. To make the data actionable, we’re building internal dashboards that provide decision-makers with clear, rigorous insights.
We see impact accounting as essential for addressing sustainability challenges across the data center ecosystem—shining a light on both trade-offs and opportunities, and helping build long-term resilience.
Rethinking the Status Quo
The world must solve a new energy equation through a broad mix of ideas and tools to reach a sustainable outcome.
Everpure is just one example of a company whose track record shows it’s possible to advance AI infrastructures while driving a meaningful reduction in physical footprints and costs. Enterprises that deploy an integrated, full-scale strategy for sustainability backed by leadership are positioned to meet the sustainability goals and the expectations of their customers, investors, and employees.
Weaving sustainability into every part of the business—from design and supply chain management to corporate governance—is not a new idea. But it has never seemed more important.
In action, sustainability becomes not a pledge, but a strategic practice that drives both business development and responsible innovation.
Getting more from less—it’s not easy, but it pays the right dividends in the end.
