As worldwide energy needs and concerns about climate change continue to increase, environmentally responsible business practices are critical for the successful future of a company and the markets in which it operates.

This IT Data Center Green Energy Policy, written by Scott Matteson for TechRepublic Premium, is intended to meet green standards for IT data center operations, which includes hardware, software and services.

Featured text from the policy:

POWER CONVERSION AND DISTRIBUTION

Avoid power conversion between AC and DC power since this can result in wasted energy.

Obtain efficient uninterruptible power supply backup systems, which can operate in switched by-pass mode to help reduce power conversion losses.

Measure power use and take advantage of online tools to track efficiency by determining power usage effectiveness.
