There are many reasons to be concerned about how we use energy but, in business and government, one of the most compelling is escalating operational costs. Enterprises continue to find new ways to leverage information and communications technologies to improve productivity and profitability, and application growth inevitably leads to greater demands for computing, storage and communications resources.

The power and cooling requirements for such resources is, likewise, increasing rapidly and by some estimates will soon represent 30 – 40 per cent of the IT operational budget.

This session explored the technology solutions and practices available today to help you become energy efficient.
