August 21, 2008 — (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — The Green Grid (thegreengrid.org), a global consortium dedicated to advancing energy efficiency in data centers and business computing ecosystems, announced on Wednesday that it will be working with the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ashrae.org), or ASHRAE, to produce documents providing guidance on data center design.
 
According to the recent announcement on ASHRAE’s website, “the cooperative publication agreement between ASHRAE and The Green Grid encourages the sharing of technical information, particularly guidance regarding energy efficiency, between the two groups.”

The Green Grid works to provide industry wide recommendations and best practices on metrics and technologies that will improve energy efficiency in data centers around the world.
