Green Technology In The Form Of A Chip

It's twice as fast as its predecessors but uses the same amount of power. The POWER6 microprocessor from IBM is a prime example of green technology in the computing world. The microprocessor chip will allow businesses to consolidate their servers and handle a much larger workload. Essentially, companies will have the option of reducing their power consumption by half or doubling their current capabilities. But IBM isn't the only manufacturer to jump on the green technology bandwagon.

Other companies like Hewlett Packard and Sun Microsystems are also engaging in similar pursuits. The companies are all embarking on energy-saving initiatives, with plans to address the issue of providing increased power in a minimum amount of space.
