Get Green uses renewable energy to power and cool its servers, while a number of green hosts only offset the electricity used to power their servers. That represents a big difference. Servers generate a lot of heat. For every watt of electricity that a server uses, 1-2 watts of electricity are typically required to cool it. Get Green is investing in about twice as much renewable energy, on a per-server basis, as those so-called "green hosts" that are only using renewable energy to power their servers.
