ADC (Advanced Data Centers) has raised the bar for data center greenness and efficiency, laying claimed to the industry's first LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Platinum pre-certified data center at the McClellan Park facility in Sacramento, Calif. On top of that unprecedented metallic hue, ADC -- a developer and operator of data centers -- claims the facility will boast a PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness) of 1.1, indicative of remarkably high power efficiency.
LEED? PUE? What do these acronyms mean? LEED is a nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high-performance green buildings, developed by the U.S. Green Building Council. It recognizes sustainability performance in key areas, including sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality.
