We have been practicing and advising on energy efficiencies to organisations since 2002. Our tagline, “efficiency through innovation” is paramount within every service and consultation we provide and clearly demonstrates our commitment to help organisations significantly lower energy emissions through the reduction of physical infrastructure in favour of a virtualised environment. This virtualised state reduces electricity consumption through cooling and power; eliminates space required for hardware and optimises and re-utilises existing resources.

IT emissions account for up to 10% of most european countries energy expenditure and with spiralling fuel costs, it is estimated by 2011 over a third of IT budgets will be spent on energy alone. Conversely, 86% of ICT departments remain unaware of their own carbon footprint.

VirtualizeIT’s holistic approach towards reduction of energy requirements is derived through consideration of the impact of an entire virtual infrastructure; including storage, I/O, server, desktop and network virtualisation. The impact of this, in conjunction with consolidation, offers the opportunity for organisations to dramatically reduce costs and CO2 emissions.
