What This Service Offers

• Energy Assessment

Energy Assessment

Quantifying IT’s portion of the energy bill and how it is allocated, will provide a baseline against which to track tangible environmental (CO2) and economic (cost) benefits of new IT and green initiatives.

Symantec's IT energy assessment incorporates industry standard metrics for data center efficiency and energy consumption, focusing on operations areas where their activities can provide the best value for the investment being made.

Undergoing an IT energy assessment will allow you to make more intelligent choices, plan for improved uptime, and reduce both operational expenses and environmental impact.

Recommendations

Recommendations will focus on incremental investments for energy savings, taking into consideration the practical limitations, risks, and fiscal impacts of such initiatives while avoiding disruption to IT operations. They will help prepare you for rising energy prices, greenhouse gas regulations, and corporate environmental responsibility initiatives.
