Case Studies in Highly Energy-Efficient Datacenters

Analyst report by 451 Research, published on 10/17/2011

New tools, designs and services have emerged to help datacenter operators improve the energy efficiency of IT and facilities. There are a number of standout examples of datacenters using the latest technologies and strategies to improve facility energy efficiency. But on the whole, real-life deployments still lag supplier innovations. Factors such as fuel price increases, carbon taxes and other environmental regulations will need to accelerate in order to drive substantial adoption of these efficiency technology and techniques.

This report examines a cross-section of sustainable datacenter projects, which are broadly representative of the range of eco-efficient technologies and strategies being employed by datacenter owners and operators today. Some of these are becoming accepted practice; others may be too niche to be applicable to the datacenter 'mainstream.' However, taken as a whole, the projects analyzed in this report illustrate how the datacenter industry is repositioning itself to consider the issues of energy use and sustainability on par with uptime and availability.
