CENTER FOR ENERGY-SMART ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS (ES2)

ES2

The Center for Energy-Smart Electronic Systems (ES2) is a National Science Foundation Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) established to develop methodologies, tools and systems that will maximize energy efficiency for the operation of electronic systems, including data centers, "from the chip to the cooling tower."

These efficiencies will be achieved through allocation and distribution of IT load, integration of controlled on-demand cooling and elimination of energy waste and inefficiencies.

This holistic approach to the development and design of energy-smart electronic systems could translate into millions of dollars in savings and a 鈥済reener鈥 industry.
