Data Centre
PUE Calculator
Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) is a widely used metric for assessing the energy efficiency of data centres. In simple terms, PUE represents the ratio of the total power consumed by the facility, including cooling and infrastructure, to the power used solely by IT equipment. Before improving your data centre's efficiency, it's essential to understand your current PUE rating.
Enter your details here to calculate your PUE and gain insights into your energy usage. Use our calculator to determine your PUE today and get expert recommendations on optimising efficiency today.
