Power to the People:
Comparing Power Usage for PCs and Thin Clients in an Office Network Environment

 

President George W. Bush and Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham view a demonstration of the energy savings of thin appliances versus personal computers. President George W. Bush and Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham view a demonstration of the energy savings of thin appliances versus personal computers.

Overview of Study:

Over the course of this last year energy costs have been rising--not just in California, but across the United States. Some small businesses are seeing prices in excess of 20 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh), resulting in noticeably higher energy bills. We present this unique practical study which introduces laboratory style test equipment into a working production IT system. Using real-world measurements of PCs, thin client devices, Pentium-based servers, and, networking equipment, we have developed hard data about the power requirements of these commonly used devices. We summarize and present this data in a manner which allows the reader to easily determine how much it costs to power their existing networks, and, the cost savings that will result if they exchange PCs for thin client devices.
