About the Power

100MW of power can operate just

one Apple, Google, Yahoo! or Facebook

data center

or 80,000 average

American homes*

Power is the most significant expense of a data

center, but with proper controls and monitoring,

consumption can be decreased.

• Modular designs

• Energy Star-rated UPS systems

– Deliver >95% efficiencies at partial loads

• Controlled lighting

• Voltage

– Moving from 120/208V to 240 power increases

efficiency by 2%- 3.5%

Power Best Practices

9

Optimizing cooling systems is key to reducing energy consumption.

Keeping Cool

10

As much as half the energy used by a data center is

dedicated to powering cooling systems.*

Temperature controls

Rack management

Raised floors

Close-coupled cooling

Variable speed fans in

CRAC units

Santa Clara Energy Efficiency

15

• 100 out of 100 on the EPA’s Energy

Performance Rating System

• 49% reduction in energy use by

utilizing the Department of Energy’s

Energy Star Target Finder tool

• 30% decrease in power

consumption over other similar

LEED certified facilities by using high-

efficiency lighting and HVAC systems

• 100% of electricity from

renewable sources

• This purchase of more than

400,000 kWh of renewal

energy credits is helping to

avoid 487,585 pounds of

CO2

Santa Clara Green Power

16

• First commercial data center

operator in California to use

reclaimed water rather than

potable water in the cooling towers

– 76,300 gallons saved per day

– 27,849,500 gallons saved per

year

– Equal to 46.5 Olympic-sized

swimming pools of potable

water saved annually

Santa Clara Water Conservation Project

17

• Reused existing building and

components

– Reuse of 99% of exterior

structural components

– Avoided diversion of nearly

85% of construction waste to

landfills

– 15% of materials came from

recycled content from pre- and

post-consumer materials

Santa Clara Other Environmental Considerations

18

• Improved indoor air quality

– Use of low-emitting materials

– Use of green housekeeping services

– Use of green pest control services

• Green cleaning policy

– Utilizes low-VOC products

– Reduces air contaminants and gases

• Transportation options

– Carpool parking stalls

– Proximity to public transportation
