Data centers and data transmission networks currently account for approximately 1 to 1.5% of global electricity consumption. These facilities are responsible for around 330 megatons of CO2 equivalent greenhouse gas emissions, constituting 0.9% of energy-related emissions or 0.6% of total GHG emissions.
Therefore, this management software enables data centers to operate in a more environmentally friendly and cost-effective manner while ensuring they can readily adapt to fluctuating energy grid demands.One of the main benefits of EMS is its ability to manage and optimise datacentres’ server operations. It does so by:
Intelligently determining which servers are needed at specific times by analysing workload and demand patterns.Another important advantage of EMS is its ability to streamline tariff management. Firstly, it enables data centers to capitalize on cost savings by scheduling energy-intensive tasks during off-peak tariff periods. Secondly, it can deactivate non-critical servers during peak hours and reactivate them when tariff rates decrease.
