Yet another quality whitepaper drops of the production line here at 1E central! Hot off the press, here's the scoop....          

In this paper, Michelle Hazelton gives us the lowdown on the new UK Government CRC Scheme - and how 1E's NightWatchman solutions can help.

As ever this is a really useful document regardless of whether your company will be part of the scheme or not. If you are at all interested (and you should be!) in saving energy in your PC and server populations, take half an hour out and read this.

Excerpt from the doc: The CRC is a mandatory carbon emissions trading scheme for all organisations using more than 6000MWh of electricity per year, equivalent to an energy bill of more than £500k. The policy has been developed with the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) and is aligned to the Energy Act 2008 and the Climate Change Act 2008. It is due to come into force in April 2010 and an estimated 20,000 organisations will be affected by it; failure to comply resulting in financial penalties. This document gives an overview of the scheme with key dates. It also looks at how 1E solutions can help participant organisations to prepare and comply. Using power management software with intelligent reporting capabilities in server and PC environments can greatly reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. Since its inception NightWatchman, 1E’s PC power management solution, has cumulatively saved its customers 2.7million tonnes of CO2 emissions.
