Tips for using PowerUp

PowerUp is an effort to help conserve energy at the University of Iowa. Many faculty and staff members use Remote Desktop to access office computers while working away from campus, thus requiring computers to be powered on 24 hours a day.

PowerUp provides the flexibility to turn on your workstations when you need to access them remotely.
