The CPI PUE Calculator is a complimentary tool that provides you with the ability to determine your data centre cost savings when combining CPI Passive Cooling® Solutions with today’s most effective cooling strategies including KyotoCooling, water-side economisers or evaporative air-side economisers.
Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) is a metric used to measure the energy efficiency of a data centre. PUE is calculated by dividing the amount of power entering a data centre by the power used to run the computer infrastructure within it. PUE is therefore expressed as a ratio, with overall efficiency improving as the quotient decreases toward 1.
The calculator requires your specific data such as power consumption and cost of electricity, then considers environmental variables (provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Organisation) to determine the best possible PUE for your data centre.
