Cut Your University PC Energy Costs By 40%
Reduce energy costs in computer labs, libraries and offices to support your sustainability commitments. Acquaintia’s AI-powered solution helps universities save money and demonstrate environmental leadership.
University power management is uniquely complex. Labs run 24/7, schedules change every term, students expect instant access, budgets are tight, and sustainability targets keep rising. Acquaintia gives universities precise control. We help ensure your computers are ready when needed while reducing energy waste, and delivering measurable savings across distributed campuses, without compromising performance or availability.
Acquaintia addresses the unique requirements of higher education environments with features designed for complex, campus IT requirements:
Different policies for term time vs holidays. Computer labs can sleep overnight and during breaks.
Library, student union, science buildings, admin – each gets appropriate power policies.
Exclude research workstations running long computations. Define exceptions by lab or machine.
Wake lab PCs before opening hours. Students arrive to find computers ready to use.
Generate data for HESA returns, BEIS reporting, and university sustainability strategies.
Report by faculty, school, or department. Show each area their contribution to savings.
Universities are leaders in sustainability. Acquaintia helps you demonstrate your climate leadership with measurable results.
Computer power management is a concrete, immediate action that contributes towards your sustainability commitments.
Show students that you practice what you teach when it comes to sustainability. Display real-time energy savings on digital signage or sustainability dashboards.
If sustainability projects are grant-funded, Acquaintia provides the documentation needed to demonstrate project impact.
Request a demo tailored to higher education environments.
When power management isn’t built for universities, IT teams get the blame. Students complain about unavailable machines. Sustainability leaders struggle to prove real progress. Leadership demands cost savings without better tools.
And unverified sustainability claims create reputational risk. The result is higher energy spend, frustrated users, and climate commitments that sound good in strategy documents but are difficult to defend with evidence.
