Energy Impact
Sources:BC HydroDepartment of EnergyLawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) Study, 2001The Environmental Protection Agency www.epa.gov
Computers Consume Energy Unnecessarily
When on, computers consume ~150 Watts of power on average
A typical computer is active only 10% of the time
EPA estimates that 60% of users leave their computers on after working hours
EPA estimates savings between $25 -$75 per computer annually
The energy of 1000 PCs running every year is equivalent to:
682 tons of co2
The Issue of Rising Energy Costs
24/7 environment:
Number of Workstations 1,000
Cost per KWh $0.11
Computer Energy Use 135 W
Running 24/7 (hr/Yr) 8,760
Total KWh 1,182,600
Projected Annual Cost $130,086
Green Computing: Untapped Potential
ANNUAL SAVINGS OF:
$77,682
9 Hours/Work Day:
Number of Workstations 1,000
Cost per KWh $0.11
Computer Energy Use 135/25W
Running 9 hr/work day 2,340
Hours idle @ 25W 6,420
Total KWh 476,400
Projected Annual Cost $52,404
Green Computing: Untapped Potential
9Hr/Work Day GENERATES ANNUAL SAVINGS OF: $77,682Savings generated is enough to buy:
115 new Workstations or
40 new Laptops or
26 new Rack Servers
Problems With Existing Solutions
Existing Solutions Are Disruptive
Computers are turned off when background processes are running
Which causes the background jobs to be terminated, data to be lost, patches and updates are not delivered
Users can override OS settings
No way to centrally manage the workstation’s power consumption
No way to report on how much energy is consumed and/or saved
Machines that are shutdown sometimes need to be accessed from remote
Intelligent Computer Energy Management
Non-Disruptive to User or IT Processes
Power Consumption and Savings Reports
Audit Mode Enables Measurement & Verification
Override Operating System Power Management
Deployed & Managed Through Central Console
Multi-Platform: Windows & OS X Faronics Power Save delivers desktop computer energy management that can
be managed enterprise-wide and is non-disruptive to user or IT processes.

Designate one or more workstations as WOL relays
Wake-on-LAN Web Interface
Workstation(s) can be woken up through a browser after logging on to the corporate Virtual Private Network (VPN).
Configure Energy Consumption Profile
1. Create Energy Consumption profiles to accurately report and predict cost savings
• Power Consumption on Monitor & CPU
Standby
Normal Operation
• Cost per KWH

“When we did an RFP for the software, Faronics Power Save came in on top of all the competitors with a great set of features, within our budget, and the best bang for the buck.”
“Since we were able to recover the cost of the software through rebates from our power company, it was a ‘no-brainer’ that we needed to purchase Power Save. The return on investment was immediate.”
Jean BengfortDirector of TechnologyCoeur D’Alene School District
According to ENERGY STAR Program Manager Steve Ryan, the district will save approximately 2,193,581 kilowatt hours annually—equivalent to more than $100,000 in annual electricity costs.
