the Critical Facilities Round Table, This Energy Committee meeting and
event is open to all parties interested in the subject of Critical Facilities
Energy Conservation at no cost
to participants. Many thanks go to John Martin and Advanced Micro
Devices for providing the facilities, communications, and refreshments that
will make this event a success. DATE &

Center Reception. 9:10
CFRT Business and
News , Bill Dunckel, PE &
Bruce Myatt,
PE Peter and Bill will present the
case for medium pressure overhead duct designs for electronic labs and data
centers with heat rejection loads of six KW per rack, and maybe
more. They will present the results of feasibility studies performed for
Sun Microsystems where heat rejection loads were high and a slab floor was
required considering house air and/or independent fans instead of more
expensive CRAC’s or CRAY’s. The benefits of this design provide energy
efficiency and operations efficiencies are a “must look at” for your high
energy consuming facilities. 10:30 Break
and CFRT
Networking EPA has recently made
recommendation to congress about data center energy efficiency regulation that
you will want to know about. Bill will present a high level summary of
these recommendations, and discuss what they mean to your critical IT
facilities. He will also help us understand exactly where EPA is headed
crucial programs like Energy Star ratings for servers and IT equipment, Energy
Star Building ratings for our labs and data centers, and other regulations
that will effect your critical environments. You should know about these
issues as early as possible. 11:45 Announcements,
Upcoming Events and
Close
Please accept this
invitation to this meeting of the Critical Facilities Round Table Energy
Committee. Our speakers will discuss "Best Practices" for the
improvement of energy efficient design changes in your data centers.
They will bring us up
to date on the newest direction of the US EPA and our local utilities to
better regulate electrical power consumption in our data centers. You
will want to be in the know about this.

of recent PG&E Energy Incentive Program
Changes
“Will
your local utility help pay for you to virtualize your data center? and to
remove old servers? and to add new power reduction
technologies?”
What
other utilities are collaborating with PG&E to offer data center energy
efficiency incentives and what that means to
you?
