ABSTRACT:
This project aims to assess the potential benefits of adjusting a web transaction processing load allow a web server to reduce power consumption in response to the availability of renewable energy. Could the load be adjusted in response to second by second changes in energy available from a wind farm or solar array? The results of research and tests will be presented. The significance of Google's recent acquisition of a wind farm will also be discussed.
