The document discusses Green-IT governance and outlines several key points:
1) There is increasing environmental pressure and external drivers like regulations that are pushing for improved Green-IT governance.
2) Green-IT governance can help organizations improve decision making, risk mitigation, and sustainability across financial, legal and environmental dimensions.
3) Many standards, frameworks and reporting requirements have been established globally and nationally to promote Green-IT practices and transparency around areas like carbon emissions and energy management.

Green ICT and its transformation in Korea (Green Startups)Hoon Jung
In 2015, I shared ideas on Green ICT and its transformation in Korea with global leaders from developing countries. This presentation deals with various subjects of Green ICT such as its background, definition, regulation and policy. If you are simply interested in Green Startups in Korea, please move to the last chapter. I separated one slide into many to make easier for readers to follow the content as each slide has heavy information.
IT can play a central role in making your corporate strategy sustainable; the key to the success is the application of a holistic governance that makes sure the IT strategy is aligned with and fully supports corporate sustainability strategy.

[Oil & Gas White Paper] Gas Measurement and Analysis to Support FinancialsSchneider Electric
A powerful tool supporting enterprise financials, decision making, and the global environment.
Deregulation and liberalization of the natural gas industry in the U.S. and Europe — and rising natural gas trade activity in general due to environmental concerns — are opening markets and increasing hydrocarbon movements. This globalization trend is resulting in an increasingly complicated natural gas supply chain that requires standard business processes to assimilate new best practices. As supply and sales interfaces increase, measurement and accounting systems must become more interoperable, accurate and secure to support efficiency and competitiveness.
An advanced, comprehensive gas pipeline measurement and analysis system can monitor flow rates and other pipeline parameters continuously and automatically validate, estimate, balance and edit measurements, with complete documentation. This robust functionality adds value for the enterprise in several ways. It makes accurate data available in real time to accounting processes to assure accurate energy calculations for billing and transactional balancing. Real-time composition determinations assure the operation is satisfying the contracted transaction with respect to quality metrics, including greenhouse gas (GHG) emission potential. Accurate real-time assessment of gas delivery vitals supports operations decision making.
The functionalities of such a gas measurement and analysis system enable best practices vital in today’s more-complicated hydrocarbon transmission operations and transactions. The system provides the quantity and quality of measurements necessary for accurate accounting and billing. Validation functions are completed with full transparency. Estimation functions support system balance and avoid accounting closing delays. Continuous monitoring identifies equipment failures and supports effective maintenance. GHG data support reduction action plans. These value-added data are all made available in real time across the enterprise to improve productivity and competiveness, operations efficiency, customer service and corporate governance.
The report documents ELCC’s experience in developing and implementing a comprehensive plan of action to go green to help frame best practices in this area and spread it allover the industry.

A holistic approach to assessing the climate-positive effects of ICT.
A holistic methodology is necessary for assessing the potential reduction of CO2
e emissions. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a well-established method and can be used for comparing emissions created in different scenarios. Standardized LCA methods can be used to identify solutions with the lowest CO2e emissions.
They provide society as a whole with the methods to assess a large number of possible solutions, to quantify the magnitude of potential reductions, and to show where these reductions could take place.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

and the triple bottom line
The
broader
concept
of
sustainability
• The
triple

(TBL)
is
made
up
of
"social,
economic
and
environmental"
factors.
TBL
accounCng
expands
the
tradiConal
reporCng
framework
to
take
into
account
social
and
environmental
performance
in
addiCon
to
financial
performance;
• The
concept
of
TBL
has
three
pillars:
People,
Profit
and
Planet.
• Green-IT also comprises managerial aspects to control and
monitor the effectiveness of implemented measures as well as
marketing measures to communicate the success towards
important stakeholders (Erek et al. 2009).
• These measures can be structured regarding their strategic,
operational and technical impact and along the IT activity chain
of IT departments covering a source, make (data center, office
environment), deliver and return process (Schmidt et al. 2009;
Molla 2008).
• Green-IT is a systematic application of environmental
sustainability criteria to the design, production, sourcing, use,
and disposal of the IT infrastructure in order to reduce IT,
business process, and supply chain related emissions and waste
and improve energy efficiency (Molla et al. 2009).

Editor's Notes
Compare 2 – 3 % w/ aviation !!Only accounting for Energy consumption.!! Scarce resourcesCO2 can be discussed; but is surely aligned with financial aspects (energy consumption) Hard to compare with impact on scarce resources when building and damages to environment when disposing … LCA Hence models do exist with Proxies.Although resource scarcity may not be a direct concern for the CIO (inter)national authorities transform their concern regulations.?
And more specifically the Need for Green Corporate governance of ITLet us zoom on EU’s situation
On peutajouteràces aspects formalisésPolitical pressureUnited Nations, European Union, nationsNGO lobbyWWF, Greenpeace, ITU, WRIThink of Greenpeace campaign against Apple ! And apple (marketing) reaction. Although this might not be a primary concern for CIOs, Green-IT image and hype offers the possibility for the CIO to take driving seat in some of the image projectsOn voitqu’un certain nombre de standardsquel’onpeutvolontairementsuivre, prennent tout doucementunetournureobligatoire avec des contraintesfinancièresà la clef.Let us focus onto a very specfici and concrete case : UK
Introduce a rk here on the Cloud aspect of the problem.
CONTROL STRATEGIC / OPERATIONAL / TECHNICAL SUSTAINABILITYImportant de remettre G-IT au seind’uneapproche plus générale de “développement durable” qui couvre, elleégalement les apects financiers (durables) d’uneorganisation.Ne pas voirdonc G-IT comme un luxe Peace-and-Love.As a future manager and decision maker, be aware that impacts of those decisions are not limited to the scope of the financial statement.
Re-inforcing again the need to orchestrate various profiles towards a single direction.GREEN-OF ITA few questions should be answered:What is priority for corporate ?Do I introduce new risks ?What are the side-effects ?Do I have enough maturity ?More?GREEN-BY ITSmart GridsSmart BuildingsSmart CitiesOptimizing transportationImproved Waste ManagementMore?
Need for all actors of the IT storyFirst two questions also highlight the need for comparing “pure CO2” and other GHGs% IT energy consumption in the servicing industry : 50 à 70 %We won’t enter here into the various models to help create some common ground for such publications; just bear in mind that although measuring Scope is not that easy to determine; not to speak when part of the computing power is virtualized to the cloud.Si l’onveut comparer ifférents DCs, ilestévidentqel’on a besoin d’un standard;Si l’onveutvoir son propre DC (sapropreinformatique) évoluer, il “suffit” de bien fixer son propre scope et s’ytenir.Highlight the fact that the graphic demonstrat a number of direct actors the (only) the enrgy consumption issue : Procurement chooses the Energy providers, Facilities build DC, Infra chooses and manages Equipments,… developers optimize CPU usage for a certain work to be achived (efficiency) while Analysts and business help making things effective.
Although focus is often set onto OpEx (here energy consumption), we see that the total impact on environment is far broader.Still, Usage is often made primary focus for two reasons:Can be solved by operational actionsDirectly linked to financial (non) waste’ve tried to give you some hint on what’s going on in a datacenter in terms of global warming (CO2 emissions) Let’s try to further open our minds and consider an extensive impact of a device onto environment.Other people (outside of IT are to be involved as well)Embrayericisur des réflexionsd’éco-système et donc de sustainability
Just want to throw a few ideas on the subject because more and more hype(see even l’Echoendof august)
Rappelerquel’on en a déjà touché un mot qd on a parlé de UK
Cloud is certainly part of the solution; (it brings of course far more that green positive returns)Still it involves a lot of parties, has dramatic impact on human resources and must be considered as a strategic decision that must be fully prepared.
And things are getting worse !!Opposite trends : need for IT to decrease its footprint … but the consumption for IT growth bigger and bigger.I hope I could convince you that IT IS a poluting industry;There is room for improvementThings can only get worse and worse with ever increasing demand for IT services.Besoin de R&DStdSkillsInteroperabilitéNetworkingCyberCrimemgt
