Vigilent To Present at MIT Energy Showcase 2013

EL CERRITO, Calif. -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Vigilent^®, the leader in Intelligent Energy Management™ systems, will present at the MIT Energy Showcase 2013, kicking off the MIT Energy Conference, Mar. 1-2, 2013 in Boston, MA. The Energy Showcase, which is free and open to the public, will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday at the Boston Park Plaza Castle. For more information, go to http://mitenergyconference.com.

With this year’s theme of “From Idea to Impact: Collaborating to Meet Global Energy Challenges,” the annual MIT Energy Conference brings together leaders in industry, academia, government, and finance to deliver critical knowledge and independent analysis on emerging trends in energy technologies policies and markets.

Vigilent will present energy saving innovations in cooling control for data centers and buildings. According to a study on Data Center Electricity Use by Jonathan Koomey, a research fellow at Stanford University, data centers accounted for between 1.7 and 2.2% of electricity use in the United States in 2011.

“We are pleased to be included in a forum of solutions addressing the energy challenges we face today,” said Vigilent VP of Marketing Christopher Kryzan. “Data centers are arguably some of the most intensive and fast-growing energy consumers on the planet. Our technology reduces this energy consumption, shrinking their carbon footprint and improving their operating margins.”

Vigilent provides data center infrastructure management (DCIM) systems that optimize uptime at data centers, buildings and telecommunications facilities by using sophisticated artificial intelligence and automated, direct control to dynamically manage cooling resources. Using patented artificial intelligence technology that is self-learning and adaptive, the Vigilent system optimally matches cooling resources to real-time demand to address changing conditions including IT loads, capacity changes, and airflow.
