Expanding the IT section
To date there has been very positive feedback on the Data Centre Efficiency Maturity Model. I have further expanded the model to include all major energy consuming parts of a data centre. IT energy consumption in a typical data centre tends to be 60% Servers, 25 - 30% Storage and 10-15% Network.

History
The Data Centre Maturity Model was created over the last year brought about to fill a gap in the industry and provide direction to help organisations drive efficiency and sustainability improvements.
The X and Y axis directionally show business benefit and impact - efficiency improvement and cost.
Level 1 is a view on where many data centres are today and Level 5 on the Maturity Model is an aspirational target and provides guidance on the cutting edge initiatives within the industry to improve your organisation's environmental impact.
