Power Efficiency and Sustainable Information Technology

Summary

As energy costs and environmental concerns rise, IT professionals in many organizations want to increase energy efficiency, and they recognize that client PCs provide an opportunity to improve the cost structure of their departments. IT professionals are motivated by personal and professional reasons to conserve energy, but energy-saving solutions have to fit with other goals of the business, such as improving IT and end-user productivity. Computers enabled with Intel® vPro™ technology provide an infrastructure that allows IT professionals to take practical steps to ensure energy efficiency, such as allowing greater control over power states during remote manageability. This technology also provides an infrastructure to allow the rest of the ecosystem to improve the monitoring of energy consumption. Intel is taking the initiative to provide its own testing of this technology in real-world applications, while understanding the challenges and successes of customers. Intel will continue to work with the ecosystem and customers to explore new ways to both monitor and improve the energy efficiency of client PCs.
