Help Pay for Virtualization with Energy Efficiency Incentives
Virtualization is a proven solution for increasing energy efficiency, and many major utility providers now offer financial incentives for virtualization projects that result in the reduction of physical servers in the datacenter. By participating in these incentive programs, you can achieve even greater financial savings with VMware virtualization solutions while significantly reducing the carbon footprint of your IT infrastructure.
Several major utility providers in the United States and Canada currently offer such incentives, including:
- PG&E High Tech Energy Efficiency
- SoCal Edison Standard Performance Contract
- SDG&E Energy Savings Center
- BC Hydro Power Smart for Business
- Austin Energy PowerSaver Program
Dozens of other utility companies are investigating similar programs; contact your local utility provider for more information.
Energy efficiency incentives are typically paid following the completion of a qualifying server consolidation project and are based on the net reduction in kilowatt-hours that will result from the project at the rate of 8 cents per kilowatt-hour. These incentives cover direct energy savings (cooling costs are excluded) and can result in incentives as high as $300 per server.
