“”
I think it is very timely for a leading and reputable training organisation like Excom to be developing and delivering courses around “Green IT” to ensure that there is a growing group of resources able to take full advantage of implementing strategies to minimise the impact of IT on the environment, and to use IT to the fullest extent in this regard.

What is Green IT?
“… the study and practice of using computing resources efficiently” ‐ wikipedia
“… the environmentally responsible use of computers and related resources. Includes the implementation of energy‐efficient computer and peripherals as well as reduced resource consumption and proper disposal of electronic waste” ‐ data centre definitions
Our Definition“Green IT is the conscious implementation of technologies, techniques and policies designed to reduce the carbon footprint of the IT function within the organisation …
… and the use of IT to reduce the carbon footprint of the whole organisation”
The Importance ofEnablement
Green IT is about reducing the 2% of emissions that are caused directly by the IT function …
… but it is also about using IT as an enabling technology to reduce the 98% of the carbon footprint caused by other activities within the organisation
Why Green IT?Why Now?

IT’s function is to provide:
● The Monitoring Capability● The Information Repository● The Reporting Tools

What is Cloud Computing?Cloud computing is Internet ("cloud") based development and use of computer technology whereby dynamically scalable and often virtualised resources are provided as a service over the Internet.
Users need not have knowledge of, expertise in, or control over the technology infra‐structure "in the cloud" that supports them.
The concept incorporates software as a service (SaaS), Web 2.0 and other recent, well‐known technology trends, in which the common theme is reliance on the Internet for satisfying the computing needs of users.

Web 2.0 Web 3.0
SOA

Social Computing
The SaaS Revolution
• SaaS is a BPO issue
• ASP becomes SaaS
• Salesforce.com …
• Atoms vs electrons
Warehouse
Problems with Offsets• No standards or
oversight
• Excuse for inaction
• Introduced at Kyotoas a way to balancedeveloped vs non‐developed countries
• No guarantees of positive outcomes
Reducing the CarbonFootprint of the IT Function
Desktop Power Consumption
Doing the sums
• 1x 100w PC = 1 KwH for 10 hrs
• 100 x PCs = 100 Kwh for 10 hrs
• 1000 PCs = 1 MwH for 20 hrs
• 1000 PCs = 200 MwH for 1 year
• Electricity = 20c / KwH or $200 / MwH
• 1000 PCs = $40,000 a year
End User TechnologiesThin Client Computing
Traditional Network
Each application runs locally on every PC. The local network is sufficient to carry the
necessary data between servers and PCs, but remote connections are too slow to support
remote users
Thin Client Network
The Thin Client server runs applications on behalf of the users, and only sends monitor, keyboard and mouse information to the user's PC or terminal. Remote connections are able to support this small amount of data, allowing
remote users to run office applications at speeds similar to that of office users.

The Atmosphere– what is it?
An unlikely combination of reactive gases that has existed relatively unchanged for hundreds of millions of years
In dynamic balance ‐ there is constant change and interaction, but the overall composition stays the same
Finely tuned:
N2 78.10%
O2 20.95%
Argon 0.90%
= 99.95%
Source: CarbonSystems
Greenhouse Gases
The trace gases make up only 0.05% but have enormous effect:
The 6 GHGs
(SF6)Sulfur Hexaflouride… very small concentrations but crucial
(HFC)Hydrofluorocarbons… a bit like hormones in the human body
(PFC)Perfluorocarbonscrucial to temperature regulation…..
(N2O)Nitrous oxideOzone 40 ppb
(CH4)MethaneMethane 1.7 ppm
(CO2)Carbon DioxideCO2 280 ppm (0.03%)
Polluting greenhousegases are everywhere
Carbon Dioxide (CO2‐e):The Numbers
• has not been exceeded for past 650,000 years at least
• Unstable weather, strong storm events, droughts
• 2°C temp rise, loss of Great Barrier Reef, sea level rise of 0.8m, reduced food and water security
• 2‐4°C temp rise, widespread biodiversity loss, decreasing agricultural productivity, sea level +2‐3m
• Threat of runaway warming, inability to adapt.
We really don’t want to go there
280 ppm: Pre-industrial levels
387 ppm: today
450 ppm: if we act now
550 ppm: if we act slowly
> 550 ppm business as usual

Where are we heading?

Federal GovernmentCPRS commitments – versus 2000 levels
Original White Paper Goals
• 5% Unconditional by 2020
• 15% Conditional on a good outcome in Copenhagen
• Original Kyoto 60% reduction by 2050 – Unconditional
Most Recent Change
• 25% ‐ “if the world agrees to an ambitious global deal to stabilise levels of CO2 equivalent in the atmosphere at 450 parts per million or less by 2050”
Business & Market Drivers• Government legislation and regulation
• Price pressure as cost of carbon starts to impact goods, services and utilities
• Increasing public and consumer awareness
• Changing customer sentiment
• Businesses as agents of social good
• Reputations and brands protection
• Investors assessing climate risk
• Broadening focus from shareholders to stakeholders and community

NGERSNational Greenhouse Emissions Reporting System
• Nearly 1000 Australian businesses must report on their Greenhouse Gas Emissions by October 2009
• Another 1000 must report by October 2010, and yet another 1000 by October 2011
NGERS Act 2007
A standardised system to quantify an organisation’s GHG emissions (consistent with international GHG Protocol)
Energy • Stationary combustion of fuels
• Combustion of fuels for transport
• Consumption of purchased electricity
• Extraction of fossil fuels
Industrial Processes
(other than the combustion of fuels for energy)
Waste emissions Methane, biological treatment, wastewater treatment facilities, water incineration
Agriculture Grazing, cropping, horticulture, agricultural burning
Land‐use change and forestry
Growing vs Clearing
The National Greenhouse Accounts (NGA) Workbook
Starting theMeasurement Process
• Do you need to report? How to do a rough calculation
• Online calculators
• Make vs Buy – Do you need a measurement tool?
Carbon EmissionsManagement Software (CEMS)
• Over 50 packages available
• Classic immature market – lots of products, no leader, many acquisitions
• Australia leads the way – 25% of world market
• Many different types of CEMS – not all suitable for everyone
The CEMSSoftware Market
Measurement Reporting Monitoring Mitigation Trading
FUNCTIONAL FOCUS
E.g., business unit/dept energy consumption analysis and reporting
E.g., market trading and/or offsets
management systems
E.g., equipment based/specifications power consumption measurement
E.g. household measurement and monitoring devices
CEMS Software: Originsand Orientations• Enterprise resource planning suites

Green IT Practice
The Bottom Line
• Green IT is NOT expensive – it saves money
• Carbon Compliance is NOT a choice – it is mandated
• IT is an essential part of Sustainability –measurement, monitor, mitigate
• The techniques and technologies exist –here and now
