6. Energy Impact
Computers Consume Energy Unnecessarily
When on, computers consume ~150 Watts of power on average
A typical computer is active only 10% of the time
EPA estimates that 60% of users leave their computers on after working hours
EPA estimates savings between $25 -$75 per computer annually
The energy of 1000 PCs running every year is equivalent to:
682 tons of co2

7. The Issue of Rising Energy Costs

8. Green Computing: Untapped Potential
24/7 environment: 9 Hours/Work Day:
Number of Workstations 1,000 Number of Workstations 1,000
Cost per KWh $0.11 Cost per KWh $0.11
Computer Energy Use 135 W Computer Energy Use 135/25W
Running 24/7 (hr/Yr) 8,760 Running 9 hr/work day 2,340
Total KWh 1,182,600 Hours idle @ 25W 6,420
Projected Annual Cost $130,086 Total KWh 476,400
Projected Annual Cost $52,404
ANNUAL SAVINGS OF:
$77,682

9. Green Computing: Untapped Potential
9Hr/Work Day GENERATES ANNUAL SAVINGS OF: $77,682
Savings generated is enough to buy:
115 new Workstations or
40 new Laptops or
26 new Rack Servers

10. Problems With Existing Solutions
Existing Solutions Are Disruptive
Computers are turned off when
background processes are running
Which causes the background jobs to be
terminated, data to be lost, patches and
updates are not delivered
Users can override OS settings
No way to centrally manage the
workstation’s power consumption
No way to report on how much
energy is consumed and/or saved
Machines that are shutdown
sometimes need to be accessed from
remote

Importantly, you define the meaning of
Inactivity:
Disk utilization
CPU usage
Application usage
Auto-Sensing Deep Freeze Maintenance
Schedules and set a time window to not
activate.

16. Central Wakeup
Power Save has the ability to switch on remote computers through “Magic Packets”
Wake-on-LAN Relay “Last Man Standing”

networking equipment
Designate one or more workstations as WOL relays
Wake-on-LAN Web Interface
Workstation(s) can be woken up through a browser after logging on to the
corporate Virtual Private Network (VPN).

17. Configure Energy Consumption Profile
1. Create Energy Consumption profiles to

“When we did an RFP for the software, Faronics Power Save came in on top of all the
competitors with a great set of features, within our budget, and the best bang for the
buck.”
“Since we were able to recover the cost of the software through rebates from our power
company, it was a ‘no-brainer’ that we needed to purchase Power Save. The return on
investment was immediate.”
Jean Bengfort
Director of Technology
Coeur D’Alene School District
According to ENERGY STAR Program Manager Steve Ryan, the district will save
approximately 2,193,581 kilowatt hours annually—equivalent to more than $100,000 in
annual electricity costs.
