ENERGY CONSUMPTION: Rising concerns for IT and business Spanning from desktop to datacenter Ever-escalating energy costs Tighter budgets than ever Global environmental pressures and regulatory issues

ENERGY CONSUMPTION: It’s not just about the datacenter Energy costs = Power to run the system Power to cool the system Power to deliver the power (overhead) DT NB DT NB DT NB DT NB NB DT NB DT DT DT NB NB NB NB DT DT POWER INSTALLED CLIENT BASE COST

OPTIMIZED HARDWARE: Closer Look at 80+ Power Supplies In every client system, some energy is lost to heat Previous-generation power supplies transferred only about 73% of energy to productivity POWER INSTALLED CLIENT BASE PRODUCTIVITY OUTPUT

OPTIMIZED HARDWARE: Closer Look at 80+ Power Supplies New wide-ranging desktop power supplies are 10–12% more efficient than the previous generation POWER IN (110 or 220V) INSTALLED CLIENT BASE PRODUCTIVITY OUTPUT

OPTIMIZED SOFTWARE Software Settings (timeouts for systems, hard drives and monitors) Policy-based power management can save even more Systems that are off or in sleep mode use less energy Advanced systems management enables remote power management, regardless of OS state, across large client install bases

OPTIMIZED HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE How much could you save? Compound benefits One desktop saving roughly $75/year x 500 clients = $37,500/year x 5,000 clients = $375,000/year

OPTIMIZED SOFTWARE: Best-practice example The future lies with policy-based power management Dell’s implementation Best-of-breed tools Dell shuts down 50,000 client systems worldwide 12 hrs at night, Mon–Fri 48 hours total over the weekend Measuring power consumption by system, facility to facility, every 15 minutes Also measuring cooling system consumptions (powered-down systems are cooler) Third-party power management solution Works with the standard/common environment (Windows, SMS) Reporting/management functions to measure and analyze results/savings Avoids impacts to patches, security, end user productivity Estimated results for Dell’s implementation $1.8M/year saved in energy costs 13 Million kW/hrs saved 8,500 tons of CO2 emissions avoided per year
