Workshop on EPA's Energy Efficiency Study
SprayCool™ has
the solutions for an industry-wide problem: hot data centers
LIBERTY LAKE, Wash. - (Feb. 14, 2007) - Solidifying its role as
an industry leader in solving complex thermal problems experienced by data centers,
SprayCool™ is sponsoring
the Environmental Protection Agency's workshop on how to improve energy efficiency
among data centers, as well as the equipment they hold.
To meet the requirements of legislation from the U.S. House of Representatives (HR
5646), the EPA Energy Star program is working with the Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory to:
- Estimate how much energy use will increase, in the near term, among computer servers
and data centers nationwide.
- Project how much money and energy could be saved with efficiency improvements.
- Recommend incentives and voluntary programs that could encourage the use of energy-efficient
computer servers and data centers.
To help in this effort, the EPA is hosting a workshop titled the "EPA Technical
Workshop on Energy Efficient Servers and Datacenters in the U.S." Feb. 16 in Santa
Clara, Calif. Industry stakeholders, including SprayCool, were invited to help explore
the technical issues of the study, which is due to Congress in June.
"We are thrilled to sponsor the EPA's workshop on increasing energy efficiency among
data centers and computer servers," said Patchen Noelke, SprayCool's director of
marketing. "SprayCool has the solutions that the EPA, as well as companies nationwide,
are looking for - a more affordable and eco-friendly way to cool data centers."
Other workshop sponsors include HP, APC, Emerson Network Power, VMWare and Intel.
The SprayCool system uses a fine mist of non-toxic and non-electrically conductive
liquid, which is sprayed in a thin layer and evaporates to cool electronics. Thanks
to SprayCool's system solutions, companies can dramatically conserve energy by cooling
more servers without increasing the power load.
For example, using SprayCool solutions to cool the servers in a conventional datacenter
can reduce total facility power consumption by 25 percent or more - a power savings
that can run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars per year, for even a small
datacenter. In addition, the M-Series cooling system is extremely power efficient,
requiring less than 200 watts per rack.
