Responding to strong industry and government demand, The Green Grid has formed two new Japan Work Groups as well as a formal relationship with The Green IT Promotion Council to help expand the organization’s presence to Asia and to enable it to establish a unique set of best practices, metrics and technologies tailored for locally-based organizations.
