Today the typical server consumes four times the amount of power that an average system used just five years ago. With this surge in IT energy consumption, power costs are also soaring, increasing an average of 20% over the course of the last eight years. IBM is taking a leadership role in this effort, investing $1 billion across its business units in programs and technology to help its enterprise customers dramatically reduce their cost base by providing them with the consulting expertise and the products to improve the energy efficiency of their data centre environments.
