"The new data center park is powered by 100% wind energy supplied by Vantaan Energia."

I think it's only Finland that they are 100% wind

They'll probably buy certificates, as do most providers with these labels. As they refer to hydro power, I'm sure they haven't built their own power plants. But I don't think "small" companies have other options if they want to use renewable energy.

We use green energy at home. Its as simple as choosing the right provider and paying a cent extra per kw/h.

Its bs if you would expect Hetzner owned windmills connected straight to the DC.

Mind to share your sources when making claims like this?

In the video posted by displus somewhere else in this thread they claim to have a location completely powered by wind energy.

Aren't green energy claims in general bullshit.
