The energy efficiency of data centres is greatly affected by temperature and relative humidity and parameters to ensure efficient performance were established in 2008 by ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning) and the European association ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) with standard ETSI EN 300 019-1-3. Correct air humidification in data centres is also important to prevent short circuits which can damage the sensitive electronic equipment: electrostatic discharge is more frequent when the air is very dry because humidity is a natural conductor, earthing any potential static charge.
