Vigilent and Dust Networks Close the Loop on Energy Management at the California Franchise Tax Board
This document presents a case study of Vigilent's implementation of an intelligent energy management system at the California Franchise Tax Board. The solution utilized Dust Networks' wireless sensor network nodes to monitor temperature and humidity throughout the facility without requiring new cabling, addressing challenges related to retrofitting existing infrastructure.
The deployment relied on Dust Networks' low-power, battery-driven mesh technology to ensure high reliability and security in a demanding data center environment. Results showed a 15% reduction in overall power consumption with a simple payback period of two years.
