Digital Realty Decreases Data Center Cooling Energy Usage
Vigilent Corporation and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory have announced the results of a joint study focused on improving the energy efficiency of a data center designed, owned, and operated by Digital Realty.
The facility used for this initiative was Digital Realty’s 135,000 square foot data center located in El Segundo, California. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory monitored the overall effort, creating the baseline and result metrics, and acted as project manager for the energy efficiency grant awarded by the California Energy Commission’s PIER Program. The results of this project were presented at the Silicon Valley Leadership’s Data Center Summit hosted by AMD on October 24, 2012.
