February 2008
Listed below are the Green500's Top 10 most energy-efficient supercomputers in the world as of February 2008. Please see the sidebar to the right for the complete February 2008 Green500 list in both online and offline viewing formats.
As actual consumed power can be much less than peak power, we explicitly note which form of power was used to rank the system and encourage all system stakeholders to report measured power -- systems where peak power is used are shown in "gray", while systems where measured power is used are shown in "black".
