10 Virtual Desktops Example 1,000 Virtual Desktop Thin Clients Dollar Energy $15,000/yr 270,000 kwh/yr

11 Desktop ECM Combination Example 1,000 Combination of virtual desktop, EE power bars & computer power management software Dollar Energy $25,0000/yr 500,000 kwh/yr

12 Virtual Storage Numbers are estimates based on external information and BCH is not accountable Save up to 95% Deduplication Saves up to 95% for full backups; 25% to 55% for most data sets. Annual savings* = 8,336 kwh Up to 70% Double Parity RAID (RAID-DP ) Saves up to 70% versus mirrored data or RAID 10. Annual savings* = 16,672 kwh Thin Provisioning 33% Save (FlexVol ) up to 20% to 33% typical savings. Annual savings* = 1,443 kwh 95% Efficient D2D Backup Disk-to-disk backup with SnapVault saves up to 95%. Annual savings* = 22,800 kwh Save over 80% Writable Snapshot (FlexClone )C Copies equal size of the original data set minus blocks subsequently changed in clone. Annual savings* = 1,905 kwh Save over 80% 20TB storage system 24,000 kwh/yr consumption So: NetApps Snapshot Copies NetApp Snapshots do not require copy space, resulting in savings of up to 80% over other vendors Annual savings* = 3,840 kwh

13 Server Virtualization Example Server Virtualization Physical servers Dollar Virtual server Storage Energy $49,000/yr 980,000 kwh/yr

14 IT Energy Conservation Opportunity in B.C. Numbers are estimates based on external information and BCH is not accountable TOTAL Virtual Servers EDUCATION AND HEALTH CARE Virtual Desktops with Power Management Virtual Desktops COMMERCIAL EE Power Bars Desktop Power Management Software INDUSTRIAL Total $ Millions in
