Summary

The Australian Government Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts (DEWHA) is currently implementing a strategy for energy efficiency of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) products. Significant progress has already been made in relation to personal computers (PCs), laptops and monitors and the next major sector to be considered in this strategy is data centres. This paper has been commissioned to explore the situation regarding energy efficiency of data centres in Australia, with particular consideration of the related ICT equipment, and to determine if sufficient evidence is available to support a more detailed study incorporating a regulatory impact statement on data centre energy efficiency.
