The PUE value (Power Usage Effectiveness) illustrates how well the cooperation between those responsible in St. Leon-Rot works. It shows how much energy is used for building management compared to the energy required for pure computer operation.
The data center in St. Leon-Rot currently has an average PUE value of 1.35. This means that the building's energy consumption is one third of the amount of energy consumed by the servers.
This is a top value for a data center in the highest availability class.
"Sustainability at the highest level is always teamwork. It only works if building management, IT operations, purchasing and sustainability management work closely together"
emphasized Michael Würth, Global Head of GFM Datacenter Services at SAP, during the award ceremony. Prior to this, an international jury of industry experts, scientists and trade journalists examined how sustainably European data centers operate.
