Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) has been selected as the common denominator for data centres in the US, EU and Japan, those carrying out server room monitoring might have heard.
The Green Grid Association announced that the PUE metric, which is one of its own creations, has been chosen as the recommended measure to determine energy efficiency in data storage facilities.
A coalition of bodies, including the US Department of Energy's Save Energy Now and Federal Energy Management Programmes, the European Commission JRC Code of Conduct and Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, picked the system.
"PUE has become the globally accepted method for data centre operators to measure and improve their data centre infrastructure energy efficiency," explained the Green Grid's Mukesh Khattar.
"Data centre operators in the US, Europe and Japan should move forward with confidence in knowing that they have a consistent way to calculate and communicate the energy efficiency of their infrastructure."
