[AusNOG] Data Suburb

[Tony de Francesco]

The use of the word "poor" was not a comment on the NevadaNAP's PUE
performance and was in no way meant to detract from their achievement of a
PUE of 1.24 - it was in response to a comment that PUE "takes a hit when
capacity is underutilized".

 

This statement has permeated the industry and led to people accepting lower
levels of efficiency at part load in the hope that their PUE will improve as
the load increases.  There is no technical reason why PUE has to suffer at
part utilization, other than people accepting a facility design that allows
this.

 

This is true for a 300kW facility or 100MW facility - nothing disingenuous
about that.

 

 

Kind Regards
