According to the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), less than half the power used by a typical data center powers its IT equipment. The other half is used to support infrastructure that includes cooling systems, uninterruptible power supply inefficiencies, power distribution losses, and lighting.
This is not just another article about power usage effectiveness (PUE) and how to measure or improve it. Just when you thought you were a responsible, efficiency conscious data center manager and were comfortable with your data center’s PUE, ASHRAE’s proposed new 90.4 standard may be about to move your cheese. Are you prepared to prove your power usage effectiveness (PUE)of your facility to the local building inspector?
