Agenda topics: Smart ICT

Dematerialization• Substitution of high carbon products, and activities with low carbon alternatives (such as replacing face-to-face meetings with videoconferencing, or paper with e-billing) will play a substantial role in reducing emissions

• Like e-commerce, e-government will have a significant impact on reducing GHG emissions through the dematerialization of public service delivery

• Dematerialization can be applied to a range of current everyday practices, and can ultimately reduce the number of material objects that need to be produced

• Currently the largest opportunities identified within dematerialization are teleworking and telepresence

• Previous conservative estimates have suggested that tele- and videoconferencing could replace between 5 and 20% of global business travel.

February 9th to 11th 2010

Agenda topics: Smart ICT

Virtualization

• Virtualization of ICT resources • A major trend in controlling the overall growth in data center footprints • Pooling assets such as computing, Network and Storage, where utilization is low, so they can be used across the enterprise and beyond. • Virtualization represents a radical rethinking of how to deliver data center services• Virtualization could significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions

Cooling

• ICT vendors are actively working to improve cooling technique efficiencies • Cooling has now become a significant competitive differentiator • Technologies and solutions are now available to detect where within the data center temperatures are running high, and to direct cooling to those areas

February 9th to 11th 2010

Consolidation, Cloud Computing and Software as a Service (SaaS)

• There is a significant trend towards consolidation that will help in dealing with the existing or legacy data center impact.

• Organizational attitudes are changing as costs of operating a data center surpass the initial investment

• Companies now have a number of options for computing services, which shift costs from the enterprise to an external provider, who could potentially deliver these capabilities with economies of scale and at higher energy efficiency

• "Software as a service" business model allows companies to access key enterprise applications, such as customer relationship management databases, or collaboration tools, via a web browser, with no need to host their own data center facilities

• Advanced telepresence applications, currently in the early stage of adoption, will have a significant impact in highly-distributed service industry environments, in both the private and public sectors.
