August 28, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- BroadGroup (broad-group.com), the researchers and producers behind the Internet Data Centres Asia summit (datacentres.com/idca) announced on Tuesday that it is offering a green data center workshop, which will focus on new technologies as well as the practical implementation of green technologies in the data center.

The workshop titled, "The Evolution of Green Data Centres - A Practical Guide," will address how green and sustainable data centers should become and will include a briefing by Peter Samain, director of mission critical facilities at global consultancy ARUP. Samain will review the drivers and global trends in green and the impact of current and upcoming legislation worldwide. He will also deliver a review of green technologies including heat pumps, solar DHWS, PV, wind turbines, CHP, CCHP, biofuels and fuel cell solutions, what they are and their benefits and downsides.

"The summit is fundamentally different because it is a regional Asian event and therefore provides both operators, enterprises, technology providers and regulators with a valuable opportunity to network, but also to gain insight into what is happening across the economies of the whole region, rather than just one country," says Philip Low, managing director at BroadGroup.

IDCA is set to take place from September 27 to 28 at the Pan Pacific Singapore Hotel in Singapore.

Last week, BroadGroup announced that Fujitsu Siemens Computers and Upsite Technologies are Gold and Silver sponsors respectively for the forthcoming Second power and Cooling for Data Centres event, which takes place in London, UK from October 4 to 7.
