The document discusses the growing carbon footprint of information and communication technologies (ICT) and efforts to make cyberinfrastructure more energy efficient and environmentally sustainable. Specifically, it mentions that (1) ICT energy usage is growing rapidly and accounts for 2% of global greenhouse gas emissions, (2) universities are working on initiatives like the GreenLight project to reduce ICT energy usage through techniques like dynamic power management, and (3) further research is needed to develop more energy-efficient computing technologies, data center designs, and videoconferencing solutions to reduce the need for travel.

Editor's Notes
- Bill St Arnaud Slide
- From EPA Report to Congress on Server and Data Center Energy Efficiency Released On August 2, 2007 and in response to Public Law 109-431 The energy used by the nation’s servers and data centers is significant. It is estimated that this sector consumed about 61 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) in 2006 (1.5 percent of total electricity consumption) for a total electricity cost of about $4.5 billion. This estimated level of electricity consumption is more than the electricity consumed by the nation’s color televisions and similar to the amount of electricity consumed by approximately 5.8 million average U.S. households (or about five percent of the total housing stock). Federal servers and data centers alone account for approximately 6 billion kWh (10 percent) of this electricity use, for a total electricity cost of about $450 million annually.
- Assess applicability of new cooling technologies Validate decision-making models for data centers Total Cost of Ownership CFD Identify metrics related to energy efficiency in data centers Develop methods of analysis in mixed use data centers
- Step 1: monitoring…
- Step 2: head to head comparisons
- Statistics since October 2006, when Telepresence product officially launched, demonstrates the value of telepresence technology Such vast deployment and usage proves the move into mainstream! Real usage showing real impact in meaningful ways
