Assisted many facilities with ENERGY STAR label and LEED certification projects Co-authored IFMA s ENERGY STAR How-to Guide Member of IFMA s Sustainability Committee IFMA Instructor
5 Learning Objectives Gain an understanding of data center metrics Get to know available benchmarking tools Understand data center energy assessment strategies Understand several types of energy conservation measures
6 Outline Introduction Metrics Tools ENERGY STAR Data Center Profiler (DC Pro) Assessing Case Study
7 Introduction Data center energy use had doubled between 2000 and 2006 Estimated that more than 60 billion kilowatt hours used in 2006 for data center operation Source: Federal Energy Efficiency Management Program
8 Efficiency Metrics Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) : A metric used to evaluate DC efficiency. Ratio of total power used by DC and power used for IT equipment. PUE Total Data Center Power [kw] Total IT Power [kw] Total Data Center Power = lights, HVAC, IT, etc Total IT Power = UPS, servers, communications, etc Source: Data Center Energy Efficiency and PUE. Munther Salim. Hewlett Packard. 2008
9 Efficiency Metrics Data Center Infrastructure Effectiveness (DCiE) : A metric used to evaluate DC efficiency. Ratio of power used for IT equipment and total power used by DC. DCiE Total IT Power [kw] Total Data Center Power [kw] Total Data Center Power = lights, HVAC, IT, etc Total IT Power = UPS, servers, communications, etc Source: Data Center Energy Efficiency and PUE. Munther Salim. Hewlett Packard. 2008
10 Efficiency Metrics Green Grid Rating System Note: Data Center Infrastructure Efficiency (DCiE) is the reciprocal of PUE -- 1/PUE Source: Facility Data Center Engineering Energy Associates Efficiency 2012 and PUE. Munther Salim. Hewlett Packard. 2008
11 Airflow Metrics Rack Cooling Index (RCI) Indication of IT Equipment cooling effectiveness
12 Airflow Metrics Return Temperature Index (RTI) Indication of air recirculation or bypass. Function of supply and return air temperatures and rack inlet and exhaust Temperatures Supply Heat Index (SHI) Indication of air recirculation Function of server intake and exhaust temperatures and supply air temperature
13 Airflow Metrics Problem: Air Recirculation Possible Solutions: Return air plenum Blanking panels Ensure adequate airflow Close gaps between cabinets Source: Salim, M. (2008). Data Center Energy Efficiency and PUE. NFM&T, (pp ). Baltimore
14 Airflow Metrics Problem: Bypass Air Possible Solutions: Locate perforated tiles correctly Seal gaps in raised floor Ensure air flow rate is not excessive Source: Salim, M. (2008). Data Center Energy Efficiency and PUE. NFM&T, (pp ). Baltimore
15 Airflow Metrics Problem: Negative Pressure Air Possible Solutions: Ensure air flow rate is not excessive Source: Salim, M. (2008). Data Center Energy Efficiency and PUE. NFM&T, (pp ). Baltimore
