Remote Power Manager (PowerMan)

Remote Power Manager Some Useful Statistics… A barrel of oil: Contains 35 UK gallons (159 litres) Produces an average of 556 kWh electricity Produces approximately 400kg of CO 2 A typical PC: Uses W (Desktop) or W (Laptop) Desktop equivalent of 2 barrels per year (operating 24/7) Or approximately 800kg of CO 2 per year Or driving over 2000 miles per year in a Ford Focus Or costs > £80 year to run

Remote Power Manager Common Solutions Do nothing! Ask users to turn off inactive equipment Configure settings manually on each system Configure settings at operating system deployment time Install power management software

Remote Power Manager Doesn’t Windows do this? Only Power Users / Administrators can configure Windows XP has NO remote configuration Windows Vista has BASIC remote configuration No way to view or report effectiveness!

Remote Power Manager Solution = Remote Power Manager Simple and pain-free deployment of power management (Single, self-installing 250KB EXE) Different policies per user / group / machine etc Additional features such as logoff, shutdown and scheduled wake/shutdown Full web-based reporting of on-going effectiveness Managed using built-in Windows tools (GPMC/ADM etc)

Remote Power Manager Some more detail… Install and forget. Minimal on-going administration required Typical site-wide deployment in < 1 hour. No visit required Simple to manage / monitor from central location Fully integrates with Windows to simplify management and avoid data loss Highly configurable. Change configuration within minutes Provides separate tool for (approved) user overrides Statistics directly downloadable in Excel compatible format Graphs for activity, waste, cost and estimated environmental impact Typically can start saving within two weeks

Remote Power Manager Reports individual computer and site wide statistics using straight forward web-interface Highlights most and least wasteful systems Only anonymous data logged Minimal network overhead <0.5KB per computer/day Fully hosted service (no hardware investment required)

Remote Power Manager University Friendly Features (From Liverpool Pilot) Event logging / problem reporting User Override / Configuration Tool (PowerConfig) Consistent identity based upon MAC Address Statistics can survive re-installation Non-User activity monitoring (PowerStart) Protected programs / files

Remote Power Manager Example: University of Liverpool BHCL Student Area: Room of approx 30 PCs used by students in public access area Average PC used for less than 2 hours per day (previously on 24/7) After power saving reduction in waste hours of 20 hours per day per computer (approx hours per week) Estimated savings: kWh per annum £1800 (or £72 per PC) kg CO miles in a Ford Focus 1.6l *Based upon estimated 150W consumption of PC with CRT monitor charged at £ /kWh Previously on 24 hours per day 365 days per year

Remote Power Manager Compared to alternatives / competition: (Almost) invisible to users. Pain free to administrators Adds several useful / complementary features Fully integrates with standard Windows AD / GPO (No big suite!) Easy deployment / configuration using standard Windows tools Web-based / hosted management reporting / graphing Target market UK public sector < £5 / unit Simple - the bits Microsoft forgot !
