How green is your data centre?

Detailed analysis, clear understanding

Datacentre UK can carry out a comprehensive analysis of your energy efficiency. Datacentre managers can be unaware of their facility's environmental performance - often they simply don't see the electricity bill. They are often aware of the symptoms of surging power demands though.

There are a range of factors in any efficiency audit: high density creating efficiency-sapping hotspots, power distribution bottlenecks, ineffective cooling and so on. Enhanced efficiency can help to solve these problems. Every watt saved in consumption saves a watt in cooling too, so the return on green investment can add up quickly. Moreover, greener datacentres are more future-proof, reducing the scale of power and cooling demands on upgrade.

Environmental analysis will result in a list of recommendations for existing datacentres. For new datacentres, environmental considerations can be incorporated at the planning stage.
