SURVEYOR Overview
Verdiem's enterprise-level, PC power management software, SURVEYOR™ manages, measures and reduces energy consumption on PC networks. A typical PC consumes 600 kWh of electricity a year. SURVEYOR reduces that energy consumption by over 30% or by an average of 200 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per PC annually. In a PC-intensive organization, this typically represents a 3-6% annual reduction in total electricity consumption, saving an average of $20-$60 per PC annually. Additionally, by eliminating PC network energy waste, organizations also reduce associated CO2, greenhouse gas emissions.
For example, a 10,000 PC network can save over 2,000,000 kWh of electricity - every year. These annual savings equate to:
- $200,000 annual savings
- Reduction of 1,264 metric tons of CO2
- 274 passenger cars not driven for one year
- 143,933 gallons of gasoline saved
SURVEYOR works by intelligently placing PCs into lower power settings when not in use. The software employs a centralized control and management approach to controlling the power settings residing within each networked computer. This maximizes energy savings without interfering with end-user productivity or desktop maintenance. SURVEYOR features comprehensive reporting capabilities to quantify savings, is easy to implement, requires minimal maintenance, and delivers payback typically in 18 months or less.
