Green IT

How can we reduce our IT energy comsumption?

There are a number of ways to keep your IT green. Some tips are:

• Turn off screens at lunch or at meetings
• Check all your PCs; old ones are more power hungry than newer models
• Activate Power Saving Settings on your PCs to switch off monitors after 15 minutes and PCs after 100 minutes if not used (PCs will wake up when you move the mouse)
• Switch on printers when needed, not as soon as you get into the office
• Share printers between several people
