The business and environmental imperatives for taking control of energy consumption across data centres and IT infrastructures are widely recognized. The key question now that senior IT industry executives need to find answers to is exactly how they should be focusing their efforts, and where the greatest investments into energy consumption reduction programmes should be made.
Only by obtaining accurate data and quantifiable details on the end results of existing carbon reduction strategies or energy efficiency programmes can informed decisions be made on what techniques to employ and what technologies to invest in.
Not just another ‘Green IT’ conference, the Carbon Footprint Energy Efficient IT Summit will provide a unique offering to IT Directors by both asking these next-level questions of ‘how’ and ‘where’, and providing actual solutions to common challenges associated with reducing energy consumption.
Our first Carbon Footprint IT Summit, (November 2007, London) demonstrated to IT executives from a range of industries what they needed to do to reduce energy consumption. Moving forward now to 2008, the Carbon Footprint Energy Efficient IT Summit will go beyond conceptual frameworks and offers instead an exceptional opportunity to develop practical guidelines on energy reduction within IT systems. With ‘real-life’ case studies from leading industry players such as Yahoo!, JP Morgan and Tesco, the Summit will enable you to share information with your peers and industry counterparts on how to actually go about prioritizing and implementing efficiency benefits into your organization, whilst clearly demonstrating the business benefits to all stakeholders.
Attend This Event To:
- Learn how to measure energy consumption across data centres and IT infrastructure in the absence of standards
- Hear practical case studies from companies that have successfully gained cost benefits from developing and delivering energy reductions
- Analyse best practices on efficiently meeting increasing business and IT demand, whilst profiling the life cycles of data centres and IT infrastructures
- Learn what tools or processes you need to have in place to take the practical, first steps to increase energy efficiency
- Learn how to educate employees to understand the impact of their work habits and raise awareness of power consumption
- Evaluate the long and short-term benefits of investing in energy efficiency
