Reducing the Carbon/Environmental Footprint

Long before it became trendy to talk about "green" data centers, EYP Mission Critical Facilities has been actively involved in planning, designing and testing facilities that are both highly reliable and energy efficient. Why have we chosen to be a leader in this? Consider this: In the last few years alone, EYP MCF has designed facilities that, in total, have the capability to demand well over 500 MW of total power. By decade's end, we will have designed facilities that can peak over 1500 MW of power. To satisfy this need, around 3000 MW of electricity will need to be generated, which is the equivalent of 3 to 5 large coal-fired power plants. These statistics are presented to illustrate the importance of embracing and promoting ideas that will help reduce the size of the environmental "footprint" that we make as a firm when we are providing services to our clients.

Not For the Faint of Heart

Analyzing and developing focused solutions for reducing overall energy and environmental impact is not something for the faint of heart. After all, these facilities are "mission critical" and introducing unexpected risk is simply not acceptable. Our process includes a broad and deep vetting process to help our clients understand in plain terms how they can reduce risk, cost and environmental impact while simultaneously improving the effectiveness of the IT systems - the primary reason why data centers exist! Additionally, we have developed international expertise and rock-solid core competencies in specific energy and environmentally-related R&D topics that demonstrate our not only our commitment to the environment, but to our clients' bottom line as well.
