3PAR Carbon Neutral Storage Program
3PAR is committed to reducing both the energy and environmental impact of storage in the data center and will continue with the Carbon Neutral Program in 2008.
3PAR Thin Provisioning eases the burden of provisioning and enables customers to spend less on capacity. But another critical benefit is its energy savings—Thin Provisioning allows for fewer disk drives to support a given amount of useable capacity. By using Thin Provisioning, 3PAR customers cut energy consumption and associated greenhouse gasses.
Beyond the energy-saving benefits of Thin Provisioning, 3PAR goes even further by purchasing offsets for the carbon emissions generated by every terabyte of disk drives sold with 3PAR Thin Provisioning. The energy savings of thin provisioning combined with carbon offsets effectively provides 3PAR customers with carbon neutral storage.
3PAR purchases carbon offsets through TerraPass, the leading retailer of greenhouse gas reduction programs in the U.S.
