What Are the Real Benefits of Investing in UPS with Energy-saving Technology?

Energy Conservation

    Global Trends in Energy Conservation

    The increasing occurrence of extreme weather events has impelled governments and corporations to make energy conservation one of the priorities, driven by the imperative to reduce carbon emissions, promote sustainability, and achieve the ambitious goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. In response, energy efficiency emerges as a pivotal solution to meet these specific environmental objectives.

    In 2022, the IEA reported record-high energy prices in multiple regions. Rising energy costs have imposed significant financial challenges on households and businesses, prompting increased focus on energy conservation. To maximize cost savings, individuals and companies employ diverse strategies to reduce energy consumption, including transitioning to energy-efficient appliances and deploying smart automation devices, such as central thermostats and smart lighting.

    UPS Systems Using Less Energy Have More Benefits Than You Think

    In response to the energy conservation trends, many electronic devices offer energy-saving features, and CyberPower's uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems are no exception. Energy-saving UPS systems operate more efficiently and produce less heat than traditional ones, thereby offering additional benefits while providing temporary backup power for your critical applications.

    Saving Energy Costs

    Users can effectively save on electricity bills by embracing energy-saving UPS systems, particularly in data centers. Besides, the energy-saving function keeps UPS systems at a lower temperature, which in turn helps to save on air conditioning fees.

    Extending UPS Lifespan

    Energy-efficient UPS systems typically have longer lifespans as they produce less heat that helps preserve their components. In addition, longer-lasting UPS systems can also defer replacement expenses, delivering enhanced value for users.

    Reducing Environmental Impacts

    According to EMBER’s electricity review, fossil fuels generated 61% of global electricity, which is one of the largest sources of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions. Therefore, using energy-saving UPS systems can reduce the emissions of CO₂ and carbon footprints, thereby helping to mitigate environmental impacts.

    Highlights of CyberPower's Green UPS Systems

    ENERGY STAR Certification

    ENERGY STAR is the U.S. government-backed symbol for energy-efficient products. According to its official website data, ENERGY STAR-certified UPS systems can reduce their energy losses by 30-55%. As a pioneer in energy-saving technology, CyberPower has dedicated to providing high-efficiency UPS products. Among CyberPower's UPS, 99% exceeded the ENERGY STAR UPS standard. This helps users not only conserve energy but also reduce their electricity costs.

    GreenPower UPS™ Technology

    Featured in most of CyberPower's UPS systems, the GreenPower UPS™ technology enhances UPS operating efficiency, allowing UPS to reduce its energy consumption and energy cost compared to conventional UPS models. This patented technology includes two innovative designs, high-efficiency and bypass circuit designs.

    High-efficiency Design

    CyberPower has introduced advanced, compact, and energy-efficient inverters and chargers in place of conventional UPS designs, which can significantly enhance UPS power efficiency and reduce its power consumption.

    Bypass Circuit Design

    This feature includes an exclusive bypass switch and a dual charger system. When the battery is fully charged, the bypass switch automatically disconnects the quick charger, preventing energy waste and resulting in significant cost savings for users.

    The GreenPower UPS™ technology can help you reduce UPS power consumption and its electric bills. For instance, compared to other brands, CyberPower UT1050EG UPS can reduce its energy consumption by up to 93% and help you save up to US$35 per year, making your UPS pay for itself in the long run.

    *Note: Electric bill savings are estimations, calculated based on UPS selling prices from Amazon.uk and electricity prices from GlobalPetrolPrices.com with UPS performing at 150W load 24/7 throughout three years. The savings may vary according to UPS selling prices and electricity prices in each region. Currency is shown in USD for consistency purpose. CyberPower UT1050EG UPS energy-saving data is based on the SGS inspection report. (Report No.: EM18147S2)

    ECO Mode

    Some advanced UPS systems feature ECO mode, which automatically adjusts the operation mode based on the quality of utility power. In case of unstable utility power, the UPS system switches to line mode to ensure the best power quality and protection. When utility power is stable, the UPS system transfers to ECO mode to increase UPS efficiency, greatly reducing its power consumption.

    For instance, CyberPower OL10KERTHD's ECO mode can help increase UPS efficiency by up to 98.4%, and here are some examples of its electric bill savings by running in ECO mode.
