Question

I have a client that wants to host their site with a "green" hosting service. I am building the site with ASP.NET MVC and SqlExpress. I've looked around and found a few wind-power solutions, etc, but they all support PHP/MySql or other non-M$ frameworks.

Has anyone found a green host that they like working with? Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Likely you'll have to determine where in the world their datacenter(s) are. Consider that some areas of the world burn coal, whereas some others use hydro generated electricity.

Consider:

• ZenuTech in Quebec
• RackForce in British Columbia

Answer 2

Are we allowed to promote our own companies? My company uses solar power. But our data centers don't run 100% off of them. Does that count?

Answer 3

Any new ideas on this, looking for a "GREEN" host. I see a lot of 100% wind powered or some other alternative energy hosts, but nothing that supports .NET and SQL Server 2005/2008.

Anyone have any fresh input on this?

I'm looking for the same thing - here is what I've found so far:
