Novel Approaches
for Energy-Efficient
Computing
Mission 10x unifies the efforts of Dutch institutions and organisations working towards energy efficient (green) computing. It is an umbrella platform that collects the activities of the different partners, at the same time that acts as a catalyst for joint activities.

Mission 10x bridges Academia, Industry & Policy for Real-World Impact


About Mission 10x
Welcome to Mission 10x, a pioneering collaboration where Dutch universities unite to revolutionise energy-efficient computing.
Driven by the urgent need for sustainable ICT, we aim to make computing ten thousand times more energy-efficient. With data centres in the Netherlands already consuming over 5% of the country’s electricity—and this demand growing 30-40% annually—bold action is essential. Our approach spans the entire technology stack, from novel materials to groundbreaking software and applications.
Mission 10x started as an agreement between 4 Dutch universities. By formalising our partnership, we strengthen interdisciplinary research and accelerate innovation. Our success builds on previous collaborations, including the €10 million NL-ECO project funded by the National Science Agenda.
Beyond research, Mission 10x helps academic partners to engage more efficiently in discussions with policymakers and industry leaders, to translate innovation into real-world impact. As Mission 10x expands, we welcome other academic and private partners to join our efforts in reshaping the future of sustainable computing.
Join us in driving the digital revolution toward a smarter, greener future.
