If your corporation is searching for fresh green initiatives that save money, you need to consider a PC power management solution. It is one of the most immediate and cost-effective ways to reduce your company’s power bill and energy consumption.
With the creation of its PC power management software, Faronics has become a recognized industry leader in reducing enterprise IT energy waste. Faronics Power Save provides organizations with centralized computer energy management and savings reports, allowing companies to continuously maximize their savings by powering IT down daily.
Even organizations with existing power reduction strategies can still lower their total cost for electricity and achieve a solid ROI from deploying Power Save.
In January of 2010 Forrester Consulting conducted a Total Economic Impact study of Faronics Power Save and examined the total economic impact (TEI) and potential return on investment (ROI) customers can realize from reducing computer energy waste via Faronics Power Save.
Forrester’s study was based on the deployment of Power Save on over 8000 computers at a large electric utility company that had already adopted significant energy saving initiatives. The report demonstrated how Power Save helped them achieve considerable savings on energy costs (over 1 million kWh per year), beyond the efficiency savings that they already realized prior to installing Power Save.
Faronics Power Save can deliver a full ROI in as little as four months — less if you qualify for a rebate. Depending on the number of PCs, you can annually save hundreds of thousands of dollars. As regulations slowly increase, organizations may be mandated to adopt a green IT approach. Modern businesses have a strong responsibility to help create a greener, sustainable future. Irresponsible PC energy consumption is not just a waste of energy; it’s a waste of money.
Here are a few tips to implement a successful PC power management strategy:
Determine Your Current PC Energy Consumption.
Verify how many computers you have and when they are on. This will help provide a baseline measure of the energy being consumed, making it easy to determine your potential savings.
Understand the Myths behind PC Power Management.
Responsible computer energy consumption doesn’t necessarily mean purchasing new hardware. Today’s software can deliver stronger dividends than the efficiencies delivered through the latest hardware technologies. Modern solutions, like Faronics Power Save, are also non-disruptive, easy to deploy, and allow for patch management and maintenance.
Look Beyond Group Policy Options.
Many traditional methods, such as Group Policy, aren’t granular enough and don’t include reporting features. Faronics Power Save has a centralized management console to provide an at-a-glance knowledge of how your investment is progressing.
Enquire About Local Rebates.
Power companies throughout North America are offering significant rebates to organizations and individuals that utilize recognized methods to reduce power consumption. The list of organizations that are rebating Faronics Power Save is constantly growing. Ask your local utility provider for more information.
More than 1,000 Faronics Power Save customers have already dramatically reduced operating costs by eliminating up to 70 percent of their computer energy consumption.
With intelligent features that go above and beyond the basic power management settings provided by the operating system, Power Save ensures that workstation energy management is non-disruptive to user and IT processes, with savings that are verifiable through built-in reporting.
The tangible benefits of Power Save are real and very worthwhile! How much savings can it equate to for you?
