EED Article 12
Annual report by 15 May for the previous calendar year, under Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024/1364. Covers energy use, PUE, WUE, energy reuse and renewable share.
New: energy, PUE & ESG reporting
Bill your compute. Report its energy.
Cyclops Labs meters, rates and bills HPC, GPU and cloud resources. The same platform now measures facility and IT energy, calculates PUE and other efficiency indicators, and produces the data datacenters need for ESG reporting and certification.
PUE1.32
- Facility energy
- 1,452 MWh
- IT energy
- 1,100 MWh
- Renewable share (REF)
- 68 %
- Water use (WUE)
- 0.41 L/kWh
PUE = total facility energy ÷ IT equipment energy
The challenge
Datacenters must now report their energy performance.
Under the EU Energy Efficiency Directive, operators with 500 kW or more of installed IT power report energy and water KPIs to a European database every year. Investors, tenants and certification bodies ask for the same data. Most operators still collect it by hand from meters, building systems and invoices.
CSRD and EU Taxonomy
Scope 1 and 2 emissions, energy mix and alignment with the EU Code of Conduct for Data Centre Energy Efficiency, as expected under Taxonomy activity 8.1.
LEED, BREEAM and others
Green building schemes need measured evidence on energy, water and operations. Verified data also supports access to green finance.
Energy & ESG reporting
One platform for usage, cost and energy data
Cyclops already collects usage data from every resource it bills. It now adds energy and water readings from the facility, so ESG figures come from the same audited source as your invoices.
PUE assessment
Continuous PUE from grid intake, UPS and PDU meters, at hourly, monthly and annual resolution. Partial PUE per hall or cooling zone shows where losses occur.
EED KPI set
PUE, WUE, Energy Reuse Factor (ERF) and Renewable Energy Factor (REF), calculated with the methods referenced in the EED reporting rules and the ISO/IEC 30134 series.
Energy per tenant and per job
IT energy is attributed to projects, tenants, GPU jobs and LLM tokens. Customers receive energy and emissions figures alongside their invoice.
Scope 1 and 2 emissions
Location-based and market-based Scope 2 emissions from metered energy, grid factors and renewable contracts. Scope 1 from on-site generation and refrigerants.
Report-ready exports
Annual EED data set, CSRD energy and climate tables, and evidence packs for LEED, BREEAM and EU Code of Conduct submissions.
Audit trail
Every figure links back to its meter readings and calculation method, so auditors and third-party verifiers can check it.
Where Cyclops measures
Five meters give you the four EED indicators
Cyclops reads the meters most datacenters already have. Total facility energy (M1) and IT energy (M2) give PUE. Water (W), reused heat (H) and renewable supply (R) give WUE, ERF and REF.
PUE assessment
Start with a measured PUE baseline
A PUE assessment is the first step towards EED reporting and certification. We connect to your existing meters, measure PUE over a full operating period and show where energy is lost.
- Connect. Read grid, UPS, PDU, cooling and water meters through BMS, DCIM, Modbus, SNMP or Redfish.
- Measure. Calculate PUE and partial PUE at hourly resolution, with data gaps and meter faults flagged.
- Report. Receive a baseline report with an EED data gap analysis and a list of efficiency measures.
What the assessment covers
- Annual and seasonal PUE, with partial PUE by zone
- WUE, ERF and REF where data is available
- Meter coverage check against EED requirements
- Cooling and power-distribution losses
- Recommended measures ranked by energy saved
One pipeline, two outputs
From meter reading to invoice and ESG report
Usage and energy data share the same collection and accounting stages, then split into billing and ESG reporting. Both outputs use the same numbers.
Why Cyclops
Built for the scale of modern compute
Arbitrarily scalable
A horizontally scalable billing stack that grows with your infrastructure — no ceiling, no rewrite.
Exascale-ready
Track hundreds of millions of real and virtual resources across a true exascale system without losing fidelity.
Flexible integration
Plugs into Slurm, HEAppE, OpenStack, OpenNebula, Kubernetes and bespoke frameworks alike.
Every asset, metered
GPU clusters, CPU cores, networking, storage, IP addresses, firewalls — if it can be used, it can be billed.
Future-optimal
Already extending to quantum computing platforms and token-based LLM accounting in sovereign datacenters.
Engineered in Europe
Born of European collaborative projects, developed and engineered in Switzerland — for Europe and the world.

Beyond classical HPC
Ready for the next era of compute
The same pipeline that meters a GPU cluster today is being integrated to monetize quantum computing platforms and to track LLM usage by the token in sovereign datacenters.
"See your compute clearly."
From classical cores to qubits, Cyclops turns the complexity of modern compute into something measurable, accountable, and genuinely approachable.
