It's probably the internal battery for the NVRAM which is at fault. Replacing it now is probably not feasible in terms of parts, and I'm guessing the time is always slow after a power-cycle. So the simplest thing is probably to put in an init script to fix the date/time when the server is coming up for example by running ntpdate towards an ntp server.

battery-stats
BATTERY-STATS(5) File Formats Manual BATTERY-STATS(5)
NAME
battery-stats - collected battery statistics
DESCRIPTION
The battery-stats contains statistics about battery charge over time, as collected by the battery-stats-collector (8) daemon.
FORMAT
Each line in the file represents one sample and is of the form:
<seconds> <charge%> <powermode> <UTC-date> <UTC-time>
separated by spaces and terminated by a newline.
Where:
seconds
is the number of seconds since 1st Jan 1970 00:00:00 UTC
charge%
is the battery charge a number between 0 and 100
powermode
indicates the power mode:
0 A/C off
1 On battery
2 On backup power
UTC-date
a human-readable date in the format YYYY/MM/DD. Note that this is in UTC, not the local or system timezone.
UTC-time
a human-readable time in the format HH:MM:SS (using a 24-hour clock). Note that this is in UTC, not the local or system timezone.
minutes-left
is the BIOS estimate of how many minutes of running time the battery would provide. This may be unreliable, depending on the BIOS
through which it was collected.
EXAMPLE
A battery under charge might result in the following samples:
1032651245 27 1 2002/09/21 23:34:05 94
1032651275 28 1 2002/09/21 23:34:35 97
1032651305 29 1 2002/09/21 23:35:05 100
1032651335 30 1 2002/09/21 23:35:35 103
1032651365 30 1 2002/09/21 23:36:05 106
FILES
The default set-up is to save battery statistics in /var/log and rotate the logs weekly, which results in this set of files:
/var/log/battery-stats - current (most recent) statistics
/var/log/battery-stats.[0-9]+ - less recent statistics
/var/log/battery-stats.[0-9]+.gz - ancient statistics
