About 80 PLUS®:

80 PLUS® is an innovative, electric utility-funded incentive program to integrate
more energy-efficient power supplies into desktop computers and servers.

The 80 PLUS performance specifications require power supplies in computers and
servers to be 80% or greater energy efficient. This makes an 80 PLUS certified
power supply at least 33% more efficient than current power supplies.

80 PLUS certified power supplies:

• Achieve energy savings, up to $70 (55 Euro) over the life of a desktop computer
• Reduce a room’s cooling load, increasing comfort and saving up to 30%
• Increase computer system reliability and save on maintenance costs by as much

as 40%

• Minimize the need for noisy fans, creating a quieter environment
• Save on construction – saves hundreds of dollars in electrical system upgrades
• Allow more computers on the same branch circuit
• Save the environment – prevent pollution by reducing energy consumption
