(1) The Green Grid is an international body whose mission is toincrease the energy efficiency of data centers.

ENERGY EFFICIENCYData centers consume vast quantities of energy. Theresulting ecological footprint has become increasinglysignificant. Energy efficiency is thus becoming a necessityand a primary concern in the drive to reduce costs.

Energy efficiency criteria must be taken into account rightfrom the outset, at building design stage.Measuring daily consumption is an absolute must.Legrand offers high-performance equipment to support youin achieving this goal. Legrand is part of the Green Grid (1).

ENERGY MANAGEMENTIn addition to the need to limit greenhouse gas emissions,increasing energy costs are requiring data center managersto invest in efficient power and cooling solutions and soreduce their energy bills.

At the same time, servers are becoming increasinglypowerful and energy-consuming, meaning that optimisinginstallations to meet requirements has become crucial.Installations need to be optimised from end to end. Firstand foremost, an audit focusing on an analysis of networkbehaviour is necessary. And this is where Legrand’sequipment and services come in to their own.

Measurement provides direct access to informationconcerning consumption. By implementing correctiveactions, energy expenditure can be reduced.

The intelligent central readout stations and power meterprotection devices integrated in the main LV distributionboard enable power consumption to be monitored andanalysed.They help improve the electrical performance of data centerapplications by implementing corrective actions. Monitoringis possible using a PC or central readout station.
