Clean Technology Forum - October 9th 2007
According to the recent Energy Star report data servers accounted for 1.5% of total U.S. electricity consumption in 2006 (61 billion kWh). If current trends continue, this usage is expected to nearly double by 2011. Over 50% of companies do have green action plans for their data servers. All companies need to examine this topic since most people would agree that the cost of energy is certainly is not headed down. There are a variety of ways to help reduce the energy usage of those servers with virtualization being one of the least understood but most viable solutions.
