It costs power to run them, and power to cool them, and power costs money. AMD has just sponsored a study by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory staff scientist Jonathan Koomey that tries to answer the question: just how much power do US servers slurp down each year? Dedicated servers found on European Business Directory (http://eu-business-directory.com) consuming large amounts of energy, can we do improove our energy consumption of our servers?

Typically an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) operates at 480 V, and a PDU steps down that power from 480 V to 208 V or 120 V. By eliminating the step-down transformer in the PDU by distributing power at 400 V/230 V and operating IT equipment at higher voltages the power chain would be more efficient.
