To make this measure more effective and tailored to the specific context of your company, we recommend that you first perform an overall analysis of your energy situation.
How to reduce electricity costs through intelligent use of IT equipment
The growing use of IT equipment inevitably leads to an increase in energy consumption, whether due to the execution of software applications, communications via LAN/Wi-Fi networks, etc.
The link between IT equipment and energy consumption is not directly visible, as electricity consumption is not dissociated from the other electrical installations available within the company.
Carrying out a sustainable IT diagnostic enables company managers and employees to optimise their digital environmental footprint and consumption.
An improvement in the energy situation may include the following aspects
Inventory of IT equipment
Adapting equipment to needs
Selecting low-energy equipment
Energy saving settings
Raising employee awareness
Questions to ask yourself before starting your project
Do I have an overview of all my IT devices?
Are my IT devices energy-efficient and state-of-the-art?
Are some devices superfluous?
Are my employees familiar with the subject of economical use of IT equipment?
