IT plays an important role in the transition from the linear to the circular economy. Many developments are currently leading to new emerging circular sustainable ecosystems. The interdependency on other external organizations gives rise to the need for control of relevant data. Local power supply and distribution problems become more apparent due to local wind and solar farms. Data Centres are operating on both the IT- and energy-axis and can play a central role in facilitating the local circular transformation. Hence, we need to look at Combined Energy & Compute in local ecosystems and tie them together in a sustainable meshed (edge) computing topology.
