Mark Bramfitt, Pacific Gas and Electric Company

Mark Bramfitt is a Principal Program Manager in Pacific Gas and Electric Company\'s Customer Energy Efficiency group, responsible for designing and delivering programs and services to help customers manage their energy use in the high tech industry segment. His team supports customers in the Silicon Valley and throughout northern California, providing a utility industry-leading program portfolio for data centers and information technology infrastructure. Over three years, these programs will deliver over 15 megawatts of peak energy demand reduction, with a program budget of over \$21 million. Mark also leads the Utility IT Energy Efficiency Coalition, promoting adoption of PG&E\'s program and service model by utilities throughout North America.
Abstract: The high-tech sector\'s incredible growth over the last two decades has, not surprisingly, created a rising demand for action and expertise in reducing energy use. Some customers simply can\'t install any more computing equipment without freeing up energy capacity. This presents a great opportunity for energy efficiency: Data center operators want to learn how energy-efficient technologies can not only save energy, but also increase data center capacity.
