April 28, 2011 EPI announces Green Data Centre course
EPI is proud to announce their new Data Centre course that will be available Q3 2011 onwards. The course is based on the SS564:2010 standard. This Singapore government initiative enables an organisation to plan, build, operate and maintain a green data centre, by establishing the systems and processes to manage and improve its data centre’s energy performance and other significant environmental impact if applicable. It provides a model for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving an energy and environmental management system. The course will prepare the student to follow the topics in this standard, being able to make changes in the Data Centre to contribute to become a more ‘green’ environment and making potential large operational savings.
