Power distribution considering cooling nodes

A computer usable program product comprising a computer usable storage medium including computer usable code for power distribution considering a cooling node, the computer usable code comprising:

• computer usable code for determining a power demand of a data processing environment for a period, the data processing environment comprising a set of computing nodes and cooling nodes;
• computer usable code for determining that the power demand will exceed a limit on electrical power available to the data processing environment for the period if the computing nodes and the cooling nodes in the data processing environment are operated in a first configuration;
• and
• computer usable code for redistributing a first amount of power, wherein the redistributing is from a cooling node in the data processing environment to a computing node in the data processing environment such that a temperature related performance threshold of a subset of computing nodes is at least met.
