    Synapsense wins Singapore green data center challenge award

    DCIM supplier SynapSense has won a Green Data Center Innovation challenge from the Singapore Government. The country’s Infocomm Development Authority selected SynapSense and Equinix as one of four consortiums selected to help improve energy efficiency as much as 35 percent in Singapore’s data center sector. The proposal from Equinix and SynapSense was chosen by the government based on “the level of innovation and the degree of viability, achievability and practicality; as well as impact in terms of improvement in energy efficiency and projected cost savings.” The Equinix "SG1 Cooling Energy Efficiency Project" has begun implementation of the SynapSense real-time monitoring and Active Control solution to add resiliency, optimize and automate the data center. This project is anticipated to result in more than US$700,000 per year in energy savings and will be fully functional by December.
