Overview

The GreenVault Data Network is a climate-conscious data infrastructure initiative focused on building scalable, energy‑aware systems for data processing and storage. By combining open‑source tooling, transparent metrics, and community governance, the project aims to reduce the environmental footprint of data workflows while enabling researchers, educators, and developers to collaborate on climate‑positive solutions. This effort seeks to balance performance with responsibility, ensuring that data infrastructure serves people and the planet alike.

Through collaborative development, we cultivate reusable components, sustainable hosting practices, and accessible resources that empower communities to advance climate research and education. Contributions support research, tooling, and open access resources that translate complex data challenges into practical, measurable progress.
