How green is GoDaddy?
GoDaddy is not in the Green Web Foundation's directory of verified green hosting providers (we checked on 1 November 2026). That says nothing either way about the energy behind its hosting.
What the Foundation's verification means
GoDaddy says the data centres it manages itself, in Europe since 2019 and its US site since 2023, run entirely on renewable electricity, but it doesn’t say how that power is bought. Its annual report says it leases most of its data-centre capacity, which that claim doesn’t cover. Across the whole company, it says 79% of its electricity came from renewable sources in 2025.
The countries GoDaddy names as its most significant; it owns one data centre (Phoenix) and leases the rest of its capacity. Not a complete list.
The data centres we list are in 3 countries, whose grids average 308 g CO2e per kWh, against 218 g in the UK. Lower is cleaner.
The grid in each country
| Country | Grid average | Year |
|---|---|---|
| United States | 384 gCO2e/kWh | 2025 |
| Singapore | 497 gCO2e/kWh | 2025 |
| France | 41 gCO2e/kWh | 2025 |
