How openHR Powers Payroll with 100% Renewable Energy
9 Nov 2025
At openHR, we believe dignity starts with transparency - not just in payroll, but in the infrastructure that powers it. That’s why every payslip, leave request, and audit trail runs on servers fuelled by 100% renewable energy.
Powered by Hydropower
Our infrastructure is hosted on data centers which source their electricity from hydropower. This means:
Our infrastructure is hosted on data centers which source their electricity from hydropower. This means:
- Zero reliance on coal or fossil fuels
- CO₂ emissions avoided
- Cooling systems that use outside air for up to 358 days a year
Why It Matters
Payroll isn’t just about numbers - it’s about trust. By choosing infrastructure that’s efficient, transparent, and ethically sourced, we’re making a quiet statement:
- That small businesses deserve enterprise-grade dignity
- That climate stewardship isn’t a luxury - it’s a baseline
- That every action can be a legacy move
Diagnostic UX Meets Ethical Infrastructure
openHR’s diagnostic rituals are designed to expose opacity and empower users. Now, we’re extending that clarity to the very servers that run our platform.
What’s Next?
We’re watching our provider's solar and battery initiatives closely - and as they expand their self-generated energy capacity, openHR will be ready to ride that wave. Because dignity isn’t just about what you build. It’s about how you power it.
