Those that are initiatives are justified based upon energy savings (cost savings), savings are calculated through PUE reductions measured in For data-centers, where multiple small activities take place, conjunction with site energy consumption. For Offices, individual infrastructure. The PUE, a measure defined by the Green Grid, is entire site infrastructure divided by the kWh consumed by the IT the energy efficiency of a data-center.
