IT Energy Savings
IT Operations. Haworth was an early adopter of VMWare, a virtual server environment. At our headquarters in Holland, Michigan, USA 15 physical servers provide computing resources for 223 virtual servers. Results include:
- Power load reduction of over 118 kW or more than 1000 amps
- Heat output was reduced by 47% with resulting energy savings
- Cost avoidance for replacement equipment estimated at $400,000. Our net impact is lower cost of ownership, better Server utilization, increased efficiencies and lower energy use/cost.
