European Commission awards Chloride Endorser Status
Chloride has been awarded the title of Endorser Status for the European Code of Conduct on Data Centre Energy Efficiency. The European Commission awarded Chloride the accolade on the basis of the efficiency capabilities, state-of-the-art technology and premium power protection achieved by its Trinergy UPS. ‘Becoming a European Code of Conduct Endorser
is a great honour for us as it fur ther demonstrates our ongoing commitment and proactive approach to energy efficient solutions and environmental sustainability,’ commented Chloride’s vice president of sales and marketing, Emiliano Cevenini. ‘Chloride was the first to sign the European Code of Conduct on Energy Efficiency and Quality of AC UPS Systems, with the aim of minimising UPS energy consumption. We have long respected the code in developing our products, and Trinergy takes this commitment to the next level.’ The aim of the European Commission is to inform and stimulate data centre operators and owners to reduce energy consumption in a cost effective manner without hampering the mission critical function of data centres. The Code of Conduct aims to achieve this by improving understanding of energy demand within the data centre, raising awareness, and recommending energy efficient best practices and targets, which could lead to a reduction in energy consumption by data centres in Europe of up to 20 per cent.
