PGS UKのサーバールーム (あえてデータセンターと呼びません) が、
2009年度の 3つの表彰を受賞しました。
まずは PGS UKサーバールーム紹介ビデオを見つけました

Information Age Awards
"Green IT Innovation Award", 10 December 2009

"Keysouce took the Green IT Innovation prize in the Information
Age Innovation Awards with its data centre airflow management system"
"The PGS site has achieved an annual average power usage effectiveness
(PUE) ratio - a measure of how much power pumped into a data centre
facility ends up supporting actual IT workloads - of 1.19. Cole says
that has been recognised by the team behind the European Union's Data
Centre Code of Conduct programme as the lowest of any data centre in
Europe."
※PUEの年間平均が 1.9はすごいと思います。

"Europes first annualised PUE of 1.2", 2009 October 8
http://greendatacentres.wordpress.com/2009/10/08/europes-first-annualised-pue-of-1-2/
"Europe’s first annualised PUE of 1.2 has been released for a data
centre designed, built and managed by Keysource of Horsham. It is
the facility for PGS at Weybridge just outside London."
"1.2 is the new 2.0 (PUE that is)", 2009 October 10
http://greendatacentres.wordpress.com/2009/10/10/1-2-is-the-new-2-0-pue-that-is/
"The latest to join the "1.2 club" is NetApp with a 36,000-square-foot
data centre with 2,166 racks of IT kit and a designed power load of
nearly 25MW."

"Engineering rethink slashes energy requirement for cooling data centre"

PGS UKのある The Heights, Weybridge地区の Webページです (音あり)

PGSは 4号棟です

データセンター専用の建物ではなく、汎用オフィスビルの一角をサーバルーム
に改造したものです。ほとんどがオフィススペースです。
※まだ空きがあります (3号棟ま一棟まるまる空いてます)。
これも以前紹介した、The Green Gridの資料です：

見比べると、日本は「自然の力」を活用した冷却実現は有利ではありません。
実際には立地場所にかなり依存しますが、関東～関西で 5500 ～ 6000時間
(229 ～ 250日/年) と推定されています。米国メキシコ湾沿岸よりは有利です。
2008年度の表彰ですが：

"Officially opened in June 2008, Fujitsu’s new 1,600 rack datacentre
is Europe’s first to be given confirmed, official Tier III
certification by the Uptime Institute, offering full concurrent
maintainability and 100% UPS backed continuous cooling and IT systems."
"It has a world-beating annual average PUE of 1.27, rising only to
1.41 even on a design day."
