ECCILES Energy Conservation in Computer Intensive Learning Environments
ECCILES Outputs • Metering • Lighting • PIR’s and Light Sensors • Powerman • Raising the temperature of the server rooms • Server Virtualisation • Awareness Training • Ventilation System • Evaporated Cooling
What is Evaporative Cooling? • Evaporative cooling is a natural phenomena which occurs naturally whenever water comes into contact with warm air. • Natural evaporation takes place which absorbs the heat and cools the hot air by several degrees.

Carbon Costing • Energy Conservation tool • Strategic target setting across university departments • Future Estates strategies, to seeks energy efficiency across campus (university hot spots) Areas Still to Develop • Carbon cost per person • Carbon cost per student/ per class/ per module • Further refinement to establish carbon cost per course • Refine room profiles to include U-values per room • On campus Vs remote learning
University Wide Strategic Approach • Central control of IT resource development processes • Increasing Awareness • Green induction programmes for staff and students • Environmental Champions • Course/ Project Impact • Green taught modules • Campus awareness • Computer life costs, and Levy charges on new purchases • Green timetabling • Carbon rating tool • Low energy procurement strategy • Carbon linked budgeting
ECCILES Everyone knows the problem... Everyone has a solution But no one can agree!!!! ECCILES A greener way of working A greener university
