   first data center to achieve this distinction from the EPA."


  "EPA's ENERGY STAR energy performance scale helps organizations assess
   how efficiently their data centers use energy relative to similar data
   centers nationwide. A data center that scores a 75 or higher on EPA's
   1-100 scale is eligible for the ENERGY STAR. The RTP data center
   achieved a near perfect mark by scoring a 99."
