The HP Data Center Smart Grid creates an intelligent, energy-aware environment across IT and facilities to optimize and reduce energy use, reclaiming facility capacity and reducing energy costs.
For the first time, businesses can accurately visualize and control data center energy use and environmental impact in real-time across the entire data center, enabling them to take action based on accurate data to maximize data center capacity and reduce operating and capital expense.
- Increase data center capacity & lifespan
- Reduce costs required to power and cool IT
- Improves reliability by optimizing IT efficiency
- Provide insight and control over energy
- HP ProLiant G6 servers are smart grid-enabled from a ‘sea of sensors’ built-in to each ProLiant. This allows the server to detect when power is being wasted and compensate to preserve, protect and enhance performance and power savings, and communicate its status and actions.
- The HP Performance Optimized Datacenter (POD) is a container-based data center that enables customers to rapidly expand their data center capacity in support of their IT and business growth. HP PODs directly respond to IT cooling needs and delivery power and cooling with near-ideal efficiency. Not only do they respond to their IT load, they communicate with existing facilities using an integrated Building Management Systems (BMS) that allow customers to connect into systems providing a total view of the facilities environment.
A 4D View of Your Data Center Energy!
Visualize and measure energy usage with technology that provides real time and historical information to discover stranded capacity and optimize data center environments, enabling businesses to add IT capacity and help defer the need to expand or build new data centers.

In case of power emergencies or catastrophic failure events such as brown-outs, HP Data Center Power Control allows users to set policies and priorities to adjust the power state of different application environments. By lowering the power state of non-critical systems or by gracefully taking them offline, administrators can ensure that data is saved in a known state which reduces restart time by hours if not days.
