1.  A Few Facts –  Environmental pressure –  External Drivers

2. Green-‐IT 3. From operaBons to governance 4. Targeted outcomes


The environmental pressure

•  We are facing growing environmental challenges: o  Global warming, o  Resources scarcity, o  Financial & Societal Crisis

•  Professional ICT and home electronics represent 2 to 3% of GHG and are responsible for massive toxic e-‐waste.

•  We need to reduce the environmental footprint of ICT. •  Hopefully ICT is also an enabler to a low carbon

economy. Greening BY IT

From global to Green-IT Governance

•  Hence the need for governance … –  Promotes trust in the organizaBon and its people, –  Improves decision-‐making and the quality of these decisions, –  Enhances the percepJon of the organizaBon among people, –  Improves the ability to miBgate risks, –  Improves stability … sustainability (financial, legal, social, industrial).

Greening By IT … 98%

A few Green-IT activities

Greening Of IT … 2 -‐> 3 %

AcBons taken by an organizaBon to lower IT environmental footprint. e.g.

  Managing electrical power used by IT infrastructure

  Managing wastes and consumables used by IT and related systems

  Sustainable IT pracBces   IntegraBng and aligning with enterprise level

carbon management targets and iniBaBves   LimiBng CPU power   …

ICT projects and products allowing a reducBon of the global environmental footprint (*). e.g.

  Environmental friendly pracBces (travel opBmizaBon / reducBon, ...)

  Water opBmizaBon in gardening   IntegraBng building automaBon & power

management systems   Eco-‐driving   Home-‐energy monitoring

(*) GeSI evaluates to 16,5% the potenBal for IT to help reducing industry GHG emissions.

IT: 3%

Other Industries:

97%

Green of ICT Main focus : •  Easy (operaBonal) •  Low hanging fruits

Green by ICT Liele aeenBon today: •  Broader scope •  Higher potenBal

Implementing Green-IT: SGM framework

•  The Green-‐IT Strategy, Governance and Maturity framework supports the organizaBon from day 1.

•  Green-‐IT SGM is a pure governance

methodology, it implements, monitors and controls: –  The transformaBon of CSR or sustainable

strategy into tacJcal Green-‐IT decisions at departmental level,

–  The converBon of tacJcal decisions into operaJonal acBviBes,

–  The Green-‐IT poreolio and dashboard of KPIs.

Green’ing a FW

•  Prepare to change by identifying the right stakeholders (out of usual IT domain of influence) –  Helps interviewing the right persons

for accurate assessment; –  Helps in identifying the right pain-

killers; –  Helps identify the right persons for

communicating initiatives and manage changes.

Green achievements 1.  Immediate wins in datacenter operaBon 2.  Improvement of the data management processes 3.  ImplementaBon of Green KPIs 4.  Boost of homework iniBaBve

Collateral achievements 1.  Energy week (internal communicaBon) 2.  Change of behaviour between faciliBes and IT 3.  Higher percepBon of IT’s contribuBon to Org’s mission

Conclusions Green-‐IT is a company wide concern

Load (duraBon) ASSESS 20 days (2 months)

PLAN 45 days (4 months)

IMPLEMENT 60 days


Discrepencies

•  Non-IT scores lower than IT •  Efficient IT, and hence quite green without knowing •  Little understanding from non-IT’ers about what IT actually

does •  IT’s willingness to go further in the green direction

YES

Usage of free cooling FaciliBes Stopped

Tested in DC1, then stopped. Bad ROI vs the move to a new datacenter in 2015.

Move hardware to more efficient datacenter

FaciliBes Ongoing

Yes. As the maximum energy capacity is reached in DC1 and DC2 (actual electricity use @ approximately 80% of total available electricity). Usage of collocaBon datacenter premises (lower PUE, around 1,5)

Plan new datacenter (more efficient)

FaciliBes Ongoing

Done, waiBng for implementaBon decision (country). Is currently a blocking factor for energy efficiency investments, like dynamic cooling.

Dashboard & Roadmap


Indicators have been idenBfied

And a poroolio of projects Is created to improve those indicators.

1.  Typical Case 2.   Your benefits


Your benefits

•  The benefits are mulBple and involve all stakeholders

•  Immediate ROI (both finance and environment !) and quick wins •  Improved corporate branding / image •  High shareholder value / saBsfacBon •  GHG and e-‐waste emissions reporBng •  AnBcipate regulaBons / avoid penalBes •  In line with company’s CSR mission


Conclusions

•  Green thinking is pervasive; •  Green-‐IT involves many people in the organizaBon.

… •  Unifying frameworks do exist; •  Low-‐Hanging fruits can easily be idenBfied … together with mid-‐ and long-‐ term visionary roadmap.
