Define Data Centre Energy Efficiency
The Green Grid, an industry based consortium dedicated to developing and
promoting efficiency for data centres and information services, has adapted the
terms power usage effectiveness (PUE) and data centre efficiency (DCE).

Efficient DatacentersWhat Can You Do ?
Simple low cost, high ROI solutions which can be implemented without effecting business continuity.
1 Implement a hot aisle - cold aisle layout.
2 Install containment between the hot and cold aisles
3 Reduce air loss
4 Install blanking plates, air guards and, perforated doors.
5 Install sub floor partitioning to balance the airflow and pressure
6 Check the location of air distributing floor tiles, relocate or provide additional.
7 Replace perforated floor tiles with air grills.
8 Widen the temperature and humidity bands

Without Aisle Containment
Cold supply air is free to
mix with warm ambient air.
Supply air can also short

With Aisle Containment
Cold air is contained
within the aisle and
only has one direction
to go – through the
equipment!

ASHRAE
Recommendation
Temperature 21 – 27 deg C
Humidity 40 – 50%Rh
To raise the air output of a 60kw CRAC
unit from 30% to 40% RH requires 7.5kw
(Approx £1k/Kw/yr)
Dry Bulb = 20 deg C Dry Bulb = 26 deg C
RH = 40% RH = 30%
To reduce the air output of a 60kw DP = 6 deg C
DP = 6 deg C
CRAC unit from 45% to 40% RH W = 5.8g/kG
W = 5.8g/kG
saved 11.5 kw
(Approx £1k/Kw/yr)
Potential savings of £11.5k
for a 60kW system Same level of moisture
– different RH

Ignore room temperature because its misleading (mixing air, poorly positioned sensors)
Think cold aisle air temperature and return air temperature
Supply enough segregated cold air at the right temperature and return temperature will be high
Increase CRAH COP = Increase Return Air temperature = Effective Air Management
100kw of cooling at 26 deg C
requires 19.6kw of electricity
100kw of cooling at 21 degC
requires 28.5kw of electricity
8.9kw represents a 31%
reduction in CRAC unit power
consumption.
8.9kw can save £ 9,356.00
over one year.
