Run a leaner, more energy efficient IT infrastructure with environmentally friendly innovative products and services from HP.

Energy efficient computers – a vital consideration

According to the IDC report 'Worldwide Server Power and Cooling Expense 2006-2010 Forecast', in 2006 fifty cents of every IT dollar was spent on energy costs. By 2010, that figure will skyrocket to seventy cents per IT dollar. That number not only takes into account servers and datacenters, but desktops, notebooks and workstations as well. Furthermore, the Forrester Group's research indicates that three percent of all energy consumption in the United States comes directly from servers, storage devices, and desktop PCs and workstations.
You don't need analysts to tell you about spiraling energy costs – you see it every day, and you've watched the numbers climb. Energy efficiency isn't just something nice to practice for the environment, it's become a vital part of your IT planning and business strategy.

HP – leaders in energy efficiency

HP energy efficient PCs help lower total cost of ownership, reduce power and cooling bills, and ensure ENERGY STAR® compliance. In fact, HP introduced its first ENERGY STAR® 4.0 compliant desktops months in advance of the new regulations, and was the first tier 1 PC manufacturer to offer 80% efficient power supplies. HP's commitment to energy efficiency has deep roots and extends through all facets of design, manufacturing, use and retirement or recycling.
HP Power Manager is a new offering based on Verdiem Surveyor that puts energy consumption directly into your hands. You know your own needs better than anyone, and this application, available as an option on 5000 and 7000 series desktops, allows you to input your own cost per kilowatt hour to discover the financial impact of various power settings. You can then adjust power settings on business desktops in response, until you get consumption numbers you can live with.

HP Provides energy efficient solutions to help customers save money and energy

The HP Compaq dx2250 and dc5750 feature AMD's Cool 'n' Quiet technology with energy efficient processors to help reduce processor heat and system noise. These PCs provide power on demand to help lower your energy cost and noise reduction. Alternative desk-based solutions like HP Thin Clients are built with processors that use substantially less energy than those in standard desktop PCs, and Blade PCs use low voltage processors that are more energy efficient than a typical desktop PC.
HP has been a leader in responsible end-of-life disposal for decades. You can recycle old equipment through HP, and even reclaim value from assets you might have thought were useless. In addition, you can take advantage of HP's trade in program that allows customers to receive credit for their PCs toward the purchase of a new one, regardless of brand. We can help you donate computers and other equipment that might still have some useable life to a wide range of charities, as well.
