Data center energy usage in New York State is an estimated $593 million annually. As a consequence, governmental agencies and utility companies are promoting use of energy efficient datacom equipment and best practices. ASHRAE, in collaboration with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), will present 5 full-day workshops throughout New York State focusing on thermal guidelines for data processing, datacom facility energy efficiency, and high density data centers. The workshops are led by instructors who are data center authorities and who are active in ASHRAE Technical Committee 9.9, Mission Critical Facilities, Technology Spaces and Electronic Equipment. You need not be a member of ASHRAE to participate. Because of the importance of reducing New York State’s energy use and the opportunities for savings that can be achieved through improved datacom center design and operation, ASHRAE and NYSERDA are funding these seminars. There is no registration fee. But attendees must register in advance. Space is limited. All attendees will also receive at no cost three ASHRAE design manuals, a value of nearly $200. • Thermal Guidelines for Data Processing • Environments Best Practices for Datacom Facility • Energy Efficiency High-Density Data Centers—Case Studies and Best Practices | Next Workshop Due to overwhelming demand, the date and location of the ASHRAE/NYSERDA Data Center Energy Efficiency Workshop have been changed.
