By storing ice made at off-peak times, Ice Energy says its air conditioner connected to data center cooling gear from Data Aire will cut peak-time electricity load.

Sounds like every kid's first thought when trying to figure out how an air-conditioning unit works.

Another way to cool datacenters is to automatically shut off servers which are being under utilized and sending load to the other computers. We use a solution from http://www.alpiron.com to do this and it was really easy to install.
