What is Windows power management software?
Windows power management software centrally controls how and when your Windows PCs use energy. Instead of relying on manual settings, or hoping people remember to shut down, it applies consistent shutdown, sleep, hibernate and wake policies across every PC, even when they're spread across sites, departments and networks.
For IT teams, that means fewer home-made scripts, fewer complaints about PCs turning off at the wrong time, and a simple way to prove energy savings to finance and sustainability leads.
How Windows power management software works in real organisations
TaskForceCO2 plugs into your existing Windows estate and gives you one place to define, schedule and enforce power policies. You decide when PCs should sleep, hibernate or shut down, and it makes sure it happens, quietly, in the background.
Central policy control
Define power rules once and apply them to groups, rooms, sites or the whole organisation.
Smart scheduling
Different hours for teaching, evening classes, holidays and maintenance windows, with several power events a day.
Policies that actually happen
Policies apply to the PC, not the user, and don't rely on the standard Windows shutdown, so stuck PCs still go off.
No surprises for staff
Shut down only when nobody is logged on, or warn users first and let them delay a shutdown when they need to.
Critical PCs stay on
Keep servers, reception PCs and special rooms in their own groups with their own rules, or no power scheme at all.
Cost and CO₂ in plain numbers
Turn technical savings into money and CO₂ figures that leadership teams and governors understand.
Windows power management software for real-world environments
For schools, colleges and universities
Computer rooms, classrooms and staff PCs are often left on overnight, at weekends and through the holidays. Apply different Windows power schedules for the school day, evening classes and term breaks, without touching each machine.
For public sector and multi-site organisations
For councils, trusts and organisations with several sites, TaskForceCO2 gives you one console for every Windows PC. Group PCs by site, department or building and apply policies that match how each area is actually used.
Why Windows power management software matters for Windows 10 and 11 estates

Proving the impact of Windows power management software
