1. An Information Handling System (IHS), comprising:
a processor; and
a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having program instructions stored thereon that, upon execution by the processor, cause the IHS to:
receive temperature information from a plurality of Power Supply Unit (PSU) thermal zones within an enclosure of the IHS, wherein each PSU thermal zone comprises a different physical area or location of the enclosure;
identify, based at least in part upon the temperature information, that a first PSU thermal zone is cooler than a second PSU thermal zone, or that the second PSU thermal zone is hotter than the first PSU thermal zone; and
in response to the identification, set a first PSU located in the first PSU thermal zone to active mode and set a second PSU in the second PSU thermal zone to standby.
