Green Energy Web Host Paves The Path For Other Web Hosting Companies
from: Steven CraigMany companies are interested in installing a solar or wind electric system, but not many go forth with the idea. One company stands out from the crowed and that is Affordable Internet Services Online Inc.(AISO.Net) in Romoland, California. They are a green web-hosting service that has been using solar power since 2001. But more then just solar panels, they have many ways to combat high energy bills and help the environment at the same time. They have 120 solar panels mounted on the ground around their data center, solar tubes providing light during the day, a large bank of batteries storing the power to keep their servers running at all times and a propane powered generator for backup. They also have AMD Opteron powered servers that use sixty percent less energy and generate fifty percent less heat and power all of their servers. The data center has several layers of insulation which give them an R value equal to R 50. This high R value keeps the cool air in and the hot air out, therefore reducing the amount of energy necessary to run the data center; plus the cooling system is built by Maytag and is energy star compliant. The company has been featured in Wired and Entrepreneur magazines. They are even looking into getting a green roof for their data center. Now here is a company which other companies should follow to help our environment, and using a green provider doesn't have to cost more, either. AISO offers packages starting at $9.95 per month. For more information about this, visit their press release here or their web site here.
