New York State Sponsoring Free Datacom Workshops

Print This  Email This

 Attend a free ASHRAE/NYSERDA workshop 
to learn how you can reduce data center energy use by up to 75%

Data center energy usage in New York State is an estimated $593 million annually.  As a consequence, governmental agencies and utility companies are promoting use of energy efficient datacom equipment and best practices.

ASHRAE, in collaboration with the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA), will present 5 full-day workshops throughout New York State focusing on thermal guidelines for data processing, datacom facility energy efficiency, and high density data centers. The workshops are led by instructors who are data center authorities and who are active in ASHRAE Technical Committee 9.9, Mission Critical Facilities, Technology Spaces and Electronic Equipment. You need not be a member of ASHRAE to participate.  

Because of the importance of reducing New York State’s energy use and the opportunities for savings that can be achieved through improved datacom center design and operation, ASHRAE and NYSERDA are funding these seminars. There is no registration fee. But attendees must register in advance. Space is limited.

All attendees will also receive at no cost three ASHRAE design manuals, a value of nearly $200.

Next Workshop:

Time: 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.

Date: May 20, 2008

Place: New York City
Steven L. Newman Real Estate Institute,
Baruch College

Cost: Free.

Registration is closed for the May 20 workshop due to an overwhelming response.  To request that your name be added to a stand-by list, contact Tony Giometti at giometti@ashrae.org
