Clean computing. Green solution for computers now offered by RetroFit based in Milford, Mass.
PCs and monitors are the single largest contributor to IT device-related carbon emissions in the workplace, with the average PC wasting two-thirds of its consumed energy when not in use.

MILFORD, MA, March 12, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- PCs and monitors are the single largest contributor to IT device-related
carbon emissions in the workplace, with the average PC wasting two-thirds of its consumed energy when not in use.

In response that that waste and pollution, RetroFit, a Milford, Mass.-based company, is now offering SURVEYOR technology which helps organizations manage, measure and reduce their energy consumption on PC networks. In a PC-intensive organization, SURVEYOR can help organizations reduce their energy consumption by an average of 200 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per PC per year, representing an average savings of $20-$60 per PC annually.

IT professionals are often unaware that PCs and monitors account for 40% of global IT device carbon emissions. Or that 60% of workplace PCs are left running after hours?

Because energy usage by computers is not itemized separately in utility bills, many organizations don't realize the extensive electricity used by PCs. According to the US Department of Energy, a PC and monitor use an estimated average of 600 kWh per year, and up to two thirds of that energy is wasted because PCs are running at full power when no one is present.

Surveyor technology includes comprehensive reporting and robust, customizable solutions for companies - big and small. In addition, RetroFit can deliver the required elements to comprehensively and cost-effectively solve the problem of wasted energy in networked PCs. It strikes a balance between energy efficiency, user productivity and network stability.
