ANGS.OB is Going Green, Improving Power Efficiency and Lowering Computer Data Centers’ Cooling Costs
While computers have put a considerable dent in the amount of paper used for personal and business communication, there are still steps that can be taken to improve environmentally friendly standards. Angstrom Technologies (OTCBB: ANGS) has developed a way to decrease the amount of energy large computer data centers use each day. The company has launched its Green Computing Initiative to increase energy efficiency to data centers.
According to the company, only 42 cents of every dollar spent by data centers for cooling systems are not wasted. Thirty cents of every dollar spent on electricity in the data centers is used on air conditioning; however, up to 40 percent of the power is lost during power transmission.
Angstrom’s LiquiCool solution is applicable to existing infrastructure and can double the number of machines cooled without the need to build new facilities. California energy costs run at 12 cents per kW/hour; using Angstrom’s technologies, a 500kW facility could save more than $200,000 each year in electricity.
The company’s solutions include the analysis of computing and storage needs for each data center. It then combines this with information regarding the customer’s price and performance needs to create a reliable, cost efficient alternative to current cooling methods.
