Release–APC’s PowerChuteTM Business Edition 9.0 brings Energy Management to Life with APC Next Generation Smart-UPSTM
Dubai–UAE: 22 June, 2011 — APC by Schneider Electric, a global leader in integrated critical power and cooling services, today announced the launch of PowerChute™ Business Edition 9.0, the first Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) software to provide energy reporting for IT equipment.
PowerChute Business Edition 9.0 moves beyond APC’s safe system shutdown and UPS management to help customers understand their power consumption with fact-based energy, cost and CO2 emissions reporting on a per Smart-UPS basis.
The programme has the unique ability to calculate the cost of a Smart-UPS’ power draw in kWh using the appropriate local currency which provides an accurate depiction of how the energy use of protected equipment affects the bottom line. Bringing visibility to the cost and byproducts of their power consumption, PowerChute Business Edition 9.0 enables customers to maximize the use of all of their Smart-UPS products and truly use their energy better.
Dave Johnson, Senior Vice-President, Home and Business Networks, APC by Schneider Electric, said: “For the first time, our customers can see the energy being consumed, the cost of this energy and the CO2 being produced by equipment protected by our Smart-UPS. Customers rely on APC to provide safe, dependable protection from downtime, data loss and hardware damage. PowerChute Business Edition 9.0 goes far beyond that by taking the guesswork out of energy management.”
PowerChute Business Edition 9.0 ships with all APC Smart-UPS 5kVA and below and is also available for download at www.apc.com/tools/download/index.cfm. This version provides UPS monitoring and centralized risk assessment reporting for up to five Smart-UPS. Customers can also purchase a version to monitor up to 25 Smart-UPS from the APC web site or via usual distribution channels.
