Modus Interactive, helping SME's halve soaring energy bills with Powerwise
LONDON - 17th March 2009 - UK desktop management company Modus Interactive (www.modus-interactive.co.uk helps UK businesses increase profitability, responsibility and drive down carbon emissions, in an economically challenging environment, with its enhanced version of Powerwise technology featuring Adaptive Wakeup.
Powerwise, is a simple to install, power saving solution which manages PC usage and reduces carbon emissions, helping businesses to halve their energy costs. Figures from the Carbon Trust indicate that UK businesses foot an annual energy bill of an estimated £3.5 billion; however, they can waste as much as 30 per cent of their energy unnecessarily, which amounts to losses of £1.1 billion per year, or £7,000 per business.
For as little as £7.50 per PC, Powerwise can save businesses over £30 per year, per PC. With 500 PCs, a business could be cutting up to £15,000 off their electricity costs annually, whilst reducing their emissions by up to 75,000Kg CO2 per year.
"The figures from the Carbon Trust demonstrate an alarming trend amongst UK businesses which can result in huge profit losses and significantly affect the bottom line of organisations" confirms Mark Taylor, Head of Sales and Marketing at Modus Interactive Limited.
"We have invested considerable time and resource in understanding how businesses can successfully and cost effectively utilise an intelligent energy saving solution without compromising end user productivity. Powerwise is being enjoyed by a number of customers who are already making vast savings."
The latest version of Powerwise boasts a number of innovative features including Adaptive Wakeup. Adaptive Wakeup, is a unique, innovative intelligent power on characteristic. With the growing number of businesses offering flexible working procedures with flexi and part time hours, the Adaptive Wakeup further helps businesses reduce energy costs in an economically challenging time. The software learns the pattern of times of when the computer is switched on, and automatically adjusts the wakeup to occur at the right time ongoing for the specific PC, switching on a computer system just minutes ahead of the employees arrival at their desk.
The Powerwise Management Console can be run from anywhere on the network. It provides both the configuration for the power saving settings (Powerwise Profiles), as well as allowing the administrator to see in real-time the power state of any computer and its devices.
The Carbon Trust campaign's target is to help save the UK economy £1 billion over the next three years and reduce the UK's carbon emissions by at least 17m tonnes CO2 - the equivalent to annual emissions from heating nearly 5.5 million average UK homes.
