Internap Data Center In Atlanta Receives ENERGY STAR Rating
The facility is the first in Atlanta to receive the rating.
Internap Network Services Corporation has announced that its downtown Atlanta data center has received ENERGY STARcertification, a program run by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to identify ways in which energy efficiency can be measured, documented and implemented in data centers. Following a 12-month process of recording energy savings at the facility, the achievement marks the first and only ENERGY STAR certification of a public data center in the city of Atlanta.
The ENERGY STAR specification requires the use of energy-efficient power supplies and reporting on power consumption and savings. Internap's Atlanta data center utilizes capacity optimization methods, adaptive active cooling and other sustainable practices to reduce its overall energy consumption levels.
