How energy efficient IT can increase your ROI California

1. How energy efficient IT can increase your ROI California Intel Corporation 2011

2. California • The most progressive state for utility energy efficiency programs • All utilities provide rebates and incentives for IT projects and technologies • PC power management software (typically a $15 per seat rebate) • Virtualization (about $200 per server removed incentive)

3. Energy efficiency opportunities with excellent financial returns Upgrading your IT systems can save money and qualify you for valuable utility rebates and incentives. • Replace older systems: New systems are much more efficient • Choose ENERGY STAR* − rated desktops and laptops: Top quartile of energy efficient performance • Maximize power management and security savings • PC network power management software: Pays for itself in ~one year • Intel®vPro® technology: Advanced power and remote management • Move to mobile platforms: Significant energy savings • Server consolidation and virtualization: Share multiple workloads on each physical machine

4. Desktops • Desktop Refresh Delivers Significant Annual Energy Savings • Estimated Energy Savings At average utility rates in California for commercial customers, these savings result in $30 to $70 in annual cost reductions per desktop. • Desktop power calculations exclude monitor power consumption. Power consumption figures are based on configurations representative of mainstream business PCs for a given model year. Systems with no power management are assumed to remain in idle 24/7.

5. Desktops + Power Management SW Combined desktop refresh and power management software Estimated Energy Savings Annual desktop energy use goes from up to 700 kWh to just 83, generating another $25 in annual cost savings. • Desktop calculations exclude monitor power consumption. Power data is based on configurations representative of mainstream business PCs for a given model year. Systems with no power management are assumed to remain in idle 24/7. kWh for PCs with Power Management is based on EPA Energy Star 5.0 model. Source: Intel.

6. Move to Mobile Desktop to Mobile Refresh Estimated Energy Savings Savings are equivalent to refresh/power management combination. Not generally supported by utility incentive programs (yet). • All desktop power calculations exclude monitor power consumption. Power consumption figures are based on configurations representative of mainstream business PCs for a given model year.
