This online tool has been developed to help data center and facilities managers easily determine how much free cooling and free evaporative cooling is available for individual data centers. Using zip codes, the tool allows users in the United States and Canada to input their specific variables - such as local energy costs, IT load, and facility load - to determine the energy savings for individual facilities. Other regions will be incorporated in the future.
Recently, a feedback session was held for members to provide input on The Green Grid's Free Cooling Tool and Maps. You can download this discussion and provide your own comments by using The Green Grid's Forum.
