SAN FRANCISCO - Pacific Gas and Electric Company today announced that it is the first utility to join The Green Grid, a non-profit consortium dedicated to advancing energy efficiency in data centers and business computing ecosystems. The utility will now include The Green Grid’s efficiency standards to expand its industry-leading financial incentive programs for customers who purchase premium efficiency servers, data storage devices, routers, and other computing equipment.

“PG&E has developed an industry-leading portfolio of high tech energy efficiency programs and services for our customers, and learning what constitutes premium efficiency for computing equipment will help us expand our offerings,” explained Brad Whitcomb, vice president of customer products and services for PG&E. “We want to provide our customers with information and incentives for the most energy efficient high tech equipment on the market.”
