Green IT
Growing pressure is on businesses to reduce their carbon footprint and many businesses now have a corporate responsibility to be seen as green. Sustainability is achieved by acting now to reduce carbon emissions and energy consumption.
VESK clients can reduce their IT power consumption by at least 90%. Unsurprisingly the largest consumption of energy in business are computers. Therefore reducing computer power consumption by 90% can reduce overall electricity bills more than any other form of green activity.
The modern average Dell PC uses 0.8KW per hour of energy, left on 8 hours per day and on standby over night would cost a company £473 per year calculated on a competitive electricity rate.
Implementing VESK allows businesses to implement Thin clients because the VESK model removes the processing power requirements from the end users computer. The datacentre does all of the work allowing you to install Thin clients throughout your business.
A typical thin client costs around £38 per year to run in terms of electricity consumption, a cost saving of around 90%. In edition Thin clients typically cost half that of a normal PC.
In many people's opinion it won't be long until everyone moves over to Thin client computing to reduce their costs and to be officially green.
In summary, implementing VESK throughout your business will:
- Reduce your CO2 emissions
- Reduce your energy costs
- Reduce carbon taxes
VESK cloud computing is the most environmentally friendly form of computing.
