- 2. POWER USAGE EFFECTIVENESS (PUE) PUE / The overall efficiency of a data centre can be 5% determined by is PUE – the lower the PUE, the 16% 15% it equipment higher the efficiency. The PUE is calculated by 40% dividing the amount of power entering a data electrical system 44% centre by the power used to run the computer infrastructure within it. An efficient but traditional PUE=2.5 PUE=1.25 COOLING SYSTEM data centre will have a PUE of 2 or above . The next generation of data centres have significantly lower PUEs, saving some 40 per cent in power TRADITIONAL READING costs. InTechnology’s Reading data centre has DATA CENTRE / DATA CENTRE / been designed to deliver a PUE of 1.25.
