Numara Software pointed out that it is becoming increasingly important for firms to address green concerns and noted that implementing more efficient systems could be beneficial to them as well as the environment.
David Weiss, president and chief executive of Numara Software, said that most computers are used for less than 20 per cent of the time they are switched on, meaning that firms are wasting energy and money.
He added that using power management software can alleviate the problem, as it will automatically turn computers off when they are left idle.
'Given the shifts in government energy policies, and increasing pressure from investors and shareholders, companies need to look for proven ways to adopt the green IT policies that will immediately impact their bottom line,' Mr Weiss commented.
Last year, a report by Datamonitor predicted that companies will increasingly use green IT in order to benefit from the cost savings it can deliver.
