PUE – Power Utilisation Effectiveness & Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) Richard Symons Data Centre Specialist June 2011.All content in this presentation is protected – © 2008 American Power Conversion Corporation

Agenda ● HOW IS ENERGY EFFICIENCY DEFINED? ● POWER AND COOLING EFFICIENCY CALCULATIONS ● ECA IS FOR ENERGY SAVING TECHNOLOGY ● WHAT QUALIFIES ? ● ENERGY TECHNOLOGY LIST ( ETL) ● HOW CAN CUSTOMER CLAIM ECA ?APC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011

How is efficiency defined? Power usage effectiveness (PUE) and Data Center infrastructure efficiency (DCIE)  PUE is a ratio of total power coming into the data center to the power going to the IT.  For example if it takes 1.5 times as much energy to run your data center as than is required to for just the IT equipment.  DCIE is represented as a percentage of IT load power divided by total data center power, and is the inverse of PUE.  Higher DCIE values indicate a more efficient data center.APC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011

● Vary parameters ● Experiment with “What if” Data Center Capital Cost ● Make tradeoffs Power/cooling efficiency Carbon footprint Make informed decisions BEFORE you invest in your data centerAPC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011

Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) Scheme for Energy Saving TechnologiesAPC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011

Enhanced Capital Allowance for energy- saving technologies ● The Carbon Trust manages the Energy Technology List (ETL) and promotion of the ECA scheme on behalf of Government. ● To help bring about a low carbon economy and reduce UK CO2 emissions by: 1. Influencing the design, availability, and uptake of the most energy-efficient equipment types within the remit of the scheme; 2. Promoting the ETL as a principal procurement tool for designers, specifiers and purchasers interested in energy-saving capital equipment.APC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011

ETL – Technology Groups ● Air-to-air energy recovery ● Automatic monitoring and targeting equipment ( ● Boilers ● CHP ● Compact heat exchangers ● Compressed air equipment ● Heat pumps for space heating ● HVAC Equipment ● Lighting ● Motors and Drives ● Pipe insulation Businesses may claim ● Refrigeration equipment 100% first-year capital ● Solar thermal systems allowance ● Warm air and radiant heaters ● Uninterruptable Power SupplyAPC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011

FINANCIAL GAINS FOR CUSTOMER DUE TO ECA SCHEME ●EXAMPLE of ECA claim : If Client X made a profit of £100,000 during current tax year and had purchased ECA certified UPS project worth £70,000 during the same tax year, then Client X will pay tax on £30,000 (£100,000 less £70,000) only, instead of £100,000 ●** UPS Project cost benefit includes : UPS systems, delivery & offloading including craneage, direct install cost covering cabling, battery build, project management, any site modifications and UPS project specific professional fees too.APC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011

FINANCIAL GAINS FOR CUSTOMER DUE TO ECA SCHEME ● Usual rate of capital allowance for plant and machinery is 20% p.a. on sliding scale basis and is spread over a number of years. ●However with ECA the customer is allowed by HMRC to use up the full cost of the UPS project ** as capital allowance within the first year of purchase. ●This ECA scheme indirectly boosts the cash flow for the customer for the first year. ●The ECA allowance is written off against customer’s own taxable profit.APC by Schneider Electric – Giles Pattison – 7th April 2011
