IT Power Management

with Verdiem’s Surveyor 6

Maybe, I’m part of the 30% of your computers that waste energy overnight.

(don't’ say it loud, but my insomnia costs your budget between 10 and 40€ per year and the planet has to absorb between 16 and

63 CO2 Kg)

3:00 AM

A suspended PC uses 96% less energy

With our software, we collect data about the main energy states and the users activity as a percentage of the day.

Orange is ONLight green is Stand-byDark green is OFFBlue line is user activity

In this case in a Hospital, we applied energy policies with Verdiem’s Surveyor in the last 3 weeks. The increase in light green bars indicate that the PCs are entering a suspended state when not used (using 96% less energy than when ON) and this is THE important factor to look at.

So utilization counts a lot!

To change behavior is hardCould you ever have imagined this picture in the ‘80s? (and I save you from the explicit ones)

With Verdiem Surveyor you can automatically reduce unproductive time when devices stay switched on with no users, without disturbing them or asking for any lifestyle changes.

Will you save your company?

Banks and extended hours companies

Healthcare and 24x7 environments

Expected savings per PC and year

% of building energy reduction

7 to 10 € 10 to 15 € 20 to 40 €

consider it to be between 1% and 3%, depending on cases. Think that if you save 1% and 4 more areas do

the same you will save 5% on total energy bill.

So the correct question is not how much can you save, but

What is a nice sum of money to send to the trashcan each year?How many more (avoidable) CO2 emissions will the world accept?

No. PC Power Management is ONE easy and simple thing to do to save energy in your company and emissions to the planet.

One of our customers with 1000 computers in a building, spends 100.000 € a month in electricity in it. By power managing the computers they save 12€ per year/PC. So for the 28.000 computers they have this means 336.000 € of avoidable waste in a year. Is this a tiny amount of money this days? And what about the 533 tones of CO2 to the atmosphere?

Answers:

“Which is the energy consumption related to real usage?”

Answers:

“How efficient is our energy usage compared with the demand from the activity and productive tasks

my workers do?”

Answers:

“Aren’t there any sub-utilized devices, and where are they?” (hint, we usually see that around 10% of the

computers are really used less than 60’ a day)

Answers:

“Which are the associated social and environmental benefits from this project?”

This is a sample subset of the available reports, and all of them allow to be filtered by group, location, device type, policies and other factors.

This is a sample of the information we track and use to make sure the policies are enforced and the goals are met, while the users are not affected.

How can we help

1Measure

2Simulate

3Verify

With the gathered data, we give you a report

about energy consumption and a

simulation about feasible savings in case of

installing the solution.

Just in case of predicting interesting savings

(between 15 and 40€ yearly per PC) we will

apply savings policies to confirm the case.

We install the measuring software in a

morning in a sample subset of PCs and then

we leave it 14 days getting data about PC

usage and energy spending

Verdiem helped define the PC power management market over the last ten years while working with over 700 enterprise, public sector, and education customers. The result is a mature enterprise software solution – Verdiem Surveyor - with built-in best practices for PC power management.

Verdiem also delivered the first IT energy management solution for Cisco EnergyWise. Verdiem worked closely with Cisco for the past three years to help define and refine EnergyWise. The combined solution supports energy consumption measurement and power state control for network attached devices including IP phones, wireless access points, routers, switches, and smart PDUs.

Verdiem Surveyor now combines the best in PC power management with the first energy management solution for Cisco EnergyWise. The result is a leading IT energy management & efficiency solution that supports a broad array of IT devices - delivering even greater energy savings and IT efficiency.

Leantricity is a small spanish company, founded in Barcelone and 100% dedicated to help companies and institutions to reduce energy spending in IT networks.

Leantricity’s founder introduced Verdiem’s products to the spanish market in 2007, and has been working exclusively to solve the easily avoidable electricity waste at computers and network equipment level in private and government sites.

Leantricity also has the responsibility of distributing and giving support to a channel of collaborating companies that can sell Verdiem´s products in Spain and Latinamerica, and has been lately participating in more than 60 projects in the field with this technology
