FY 2010 ECO Symbol Star Products
| Certified Products | Criteria | Results and Strengths | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Business PCs | Mate type ME (LCD integrated type) | Resources recycling: Uses bioplastics | - Uses NEC's original flame-retardant bioplastic (Nucycle™) for the front mask. As a result, over 90% of the exterior plastic of the unit consists of bioplastic (selected as an option when purchasing) |
| MultiSync Series LCD displays | LCD-EA222WMe | Global warming: Achievement of a CO₂ emissions reduction rate of 50% or higher | - 68% reduction in power consumption (while using ECO mode) - In addition to ECO MODE and Carbon Meter, the LCD displays are equipped with the Auto Brightness function, which senses the surrounding brightness and automatically adjusts the screen's brightness, and the Off Mode function, which causes the display to automatically enter the Power Save mode. |
| Scalable SAN storage | iStorage D8-30 | Global warming: Achievement of a CO₂ emissions reduction rate of 50% or higher | - Power consumption reduction of up to 61% - Uses MAID* technology to save power, for example by disconnecting the power to the motors of backup disk drives that are not being used. *Software technology for schedule management of disk drives on an individual drive unit basis, which contributes to lower power consumption by switching off the power supply of HDDs that are not in use |
| Next-generation grid storage | iStorage HS8-20 | Global warming: Achievement of a CO₂ emissions reduction rate of 51% or higher | - Power consumption reduction of up to 63% - 75% reduction in mounting footprint compared to conventional systems through high-density mounting technology that doubles the number of installed disk drives per storage node |
| Server | Express5800/i120Ra-e1 | Global warming: Achievement of a CO₂ emissions reduction rate of 50% or higher | - Power consumption reduction of up to 51% - Power saving 2-way server especially designed for iDC based on information supplied by iDC during interviews. Optimization of the entire server is achieved through revolution control of cooling fans, placement optimization, continuous CPU drive control, etc. |
| Server | Express5800/R110b-1 | Global warming: Achievement of a CO₂ emissions reduction rate of 50% or higher | - Power consumption reduction of up to 52% - Contributes to energy saving by limiting power loss during AC/DC conversion, through a high-efficiency power supply compliant with the 80 PLUS® program (www.80plus.org). |
| Greenhouse gas observation sensor (TANSO) on artificial satellite Ibuki | Won a non-NEC award | 19th Nikkei Global Environmental Technology Award, sponsored by Nikkei Inc. (Award date: October 20, 2009) | |
| Won in-house award | NEC CSR AWARDS 2009's Environment Award—Ecology through IT Category (Award date: July 17, 2009) | ||
| Original technology | A world first as a satellite mounted sensor (1) The world's highest performance for CO₂ concentration measurement, with a margin of error of less than 1% (2) Capable of observing 56,000 observation points (about 200 times the previous number, 286), over 3 days (3) Capable of performing CO₂ measurements anywhere on the surface of the globe |
