Follow on Google News | Still time for Schools to save a small fortune.Schools might be closing for Summer but does the Electricity usage reflect that?
By: PeachWorx LLP Even Schools that ensure PCs are shut down are prone to wastage as often schools are used mid holiday for various reasons and subsequently equipment that was switched off is back on again. One way to handle the problem is to install PC Power Management Software like TaskForceCO2. TaskForceCO2 installs on the server and lets the ICT Manager deploy power saving schemes across the entire PC foot print. Schemes can be as simple as Shut down at 4pm and wake up at 8am or a more detailed scheme that allows the user to maximize on energy efficiency throughout the day. Ideal for School holiday periods is the TaskForceCO2 'repeat task' function that caters for any PCs that have been previously shut down then woken again which will then re-shut down equipment once the idle time criteria is met. It is estimated by PeachWorx that the combination of features in TaskForceCO2 will allow a school to save around £30 a year for every PC on the Network and significantly cut CO2. PeachWorx urge any School without a power management product in place to get one sorted before the holidays. 'The chances are the savings could easily far out way the cost of the solution. Its absolutely worth looking into when you consider a school with 750 PCs could be looking at savings of over £22,000 a year' said Richard Ward, Partner at PeachWorx. 'We have a free trial copy available at http://www.peachworx.com which works on up to 250 PCs and lets any one testing it get a real feel for how much they can save and be able to make an informed decision about purchasing' said Ward.
