MD of Rackspace Doug Loewe (pictured) shows off the contrast between the cutting-edge microchip technology and the bits of wood powering them.

Loewe said in a statement: "Rackspace is committed to being energy efficient and making a real and positive difference to the environment. We also recognise that customers are increasingly looking for suppliers who can help them meet their own environment-related goals."

The 55,000-square-foot, three server hall will open in June.
