The free report, "Low Emission IT - The Internet Meets the Oil Crisis", identifies challenges facing the IT industry. It argues that: "One of these challenges is the steep learning curve IT managers have found themselves on as they get to grips with an array of initiatives and emission reduction schemes, as well as the new efficient technologies that vendors are bringing to the market." According to Remi Wilkinson, analyst with CarbonFree, both manufacturers and users of IT are faced with a bewildering array of energy management technology and emission reduction schemes and initiatives. "While manufacturers are obviously interested in selling more equipment, and some are using the eco-badge to do this, there are a number of ways companies can reduce the energy requirements of their IT systems without investing in new equipment. This is very important at the moment as the current oil price spike has coincided with a credit crunch that could make it difficult to finance a complete upgrade of a corporate IT system."{moscomment}
